@TheConstitutionMan No man! He did not endorce religion. That man was ahead of his time, and for you to get the whole point in what you have extracted from a volume of his thoughts, you must read everything before and after those words on religion by Thomas Pain. He alos knew that politically, religion was neccessary as an opium to those who can only be kept inline with religion. But he never in anyway endorced religion. Infact, he vomited religion out of his common sense

I think, reading some of these comments...some people need to go glance over "Age of Reason".
Thomas Paine was harrassed by the Church on his deathbed, forsaken by an entire nation because he bravely stood against ALL organized religion, and was demonized for it (Not just christianity).
Anyway, people need to stop twisting his legacy. He has clearly laid out his views for all to see in plenty of sources.

I also learned exactly which washington32Founding Fathers were Masons (only a maximum of 9% of the Founding Fathers had any connection with Masonry, and only 5% of them were documented members), and I learned the exact extent of their involvement (George Washington, during 3 decades of membership, attended only 4 Masonic events! Oh, and by the way, all of those paintings of him in Masonic garb – bogus!).

a brief history of Freemasonry including how its was introduced in America (mainly as military lodges in which both officers and enlisted men could socialize without regard to rank or class) and how it has changed since the time of the Founding Fathers (the blood oaths and degrees of rank were added between 1820-1845, after many of the Founders were dead, and these things also caused a mass exodus of Christians from the lodges, leading to many of the pagan beliefs adopted by Freemasonry today)

Freemasons were mentioned several times. did you know that in several of the founders own writings. they said freemasonry was very dangerous to this country?

Signer of the Declaration of Independence, Clergyman and President of Princeton University
"While we give praise to God, the Supreme Disposer of all events, for His interposition on our behalf, let us guard against the dangerous error of trusting in, or boasting of, an arm of flesh ... If your cause is just, if your principles are pure, and if your conduct is prudent, you need not fear the multitude of opposing hosts.

@Layna8 you do know that almost all the founders were deist?!? right? they all hated Christianity and thought it was rubbish.Chirstianity is probably the most childish religion out there. Next time you telepathically communicate with the creator of the universe tell him/her to give you a brain. Brainwashed fool...
