No, it wasn't. Jefferson and a lot of our founding fathers were Deists. they believed in God, but did not
particularly buy into Judeo-Christian doctrine.
I'll by into your argument when the constitution or the declaration mentions Jesus or Abraham. I can see what you're getting at, with God and all, but it was later intrepration that brought judeism and christianity into the mesh, the original intent was to be as neutral as possible, considering most major religions had a God, and atheism wasn't a full blown movement. i don't think. but i could be wrong on that one. anyway.
