As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquility, of Mussel men; and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."

Well lets see Franklin rumored to be a satanist (guess that falls under Christianity), Adams was a douche, Jefferson was more of an anarchist with eyes towards personal freedoms over all else.
