America and our Deist Founding Fathers
Just leaving this here. This is just to archive something I consider of importance. People are welcome to comment, but I'm not getting into some brawl. And I will reach through my monitor and slap the first person to bring up the Treaty of Tripoli.
John Adams, by David McCullough
Page 418, Adams thinking on the French Revolution:
But he had "learned by awful experience to rejoice with trembling." He could not accept the idea of enshrining reason as a religion, as desired by the philosophies. "I know not what to make of a republic of thirty million atheists."
(Edit: And if you want to know why it is I dislike atheists as a general rule you'd see it in the comment I'm not going to unscreen.)
