Enough so that they agreed upon a constitution that is based on the idea that "....(All men) are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights...".

All white men...and no women...of course.

How can you assume that they all mean god?  The faith's of the forefathers were hardly universal, Jefferson especially.

Yes, Jefferson wanted to abolish slavery when he wrote the constitution.

Most didn't share his views.

What would you suggest "their creator" might otherwise be alluding to?

I'm sure he did. I'm sure he acted on that also, and freed all of his slaves. 

So most didn't share his views, but everyone agreed on what one creator was?

I don't know, nor do I presume to know.  Look at Jefferson's views on religion.  Look at Franklin...Washington.  Nobody has any idea what is or what was.

That's "God", with a capital G, you heathen.

My mom was my creator. Who was yours?

I have a son. I don't consider myself his creator. I had sex with his mom. Then he grew inside her. She created him, not me.

I didn't push a 7 lb bag if bones out of my crotch. Not equal.

Genetically, you had as much to do with his creation as your wife.

That's simple biology.

Nice.   Throw a dog in a filthy hippie's lap and even the "Be your own keeper" people will feel some sympathy.
