What was the rumbling just now? An earthquake? No, it was the Founding Fathers rolling in their graves simultaneously.

Actually, they had no problem with prayer and so on. John Adams proclaimed a day of prayer in 1798. Abraham Lincoln had a day of prayer. Franklin thought they should pray during the Constitutional Convention.

But I think both Franklin and Jefferson would be out experimenting with different kinds of cloud busters.
