Jefferson kept his
questioning of religion quiet during his political life.

THOMAS JEFFERSON:
I never told my own religion nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed. I am satisfied that yours must be an excellent religion to have produced a life of such exemplary virtue and correctness. For it is in our lives, and not from our words, that our religion must be judged.

1816, in a letter to Mrs. H. Harrison Smith
ABRAHAM LINCOLN:
When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
