Ben Franklin was...
"The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason." ~Benjamin Franklin
The founders lived during the Age of Reason, where reason triumphed over the divine rule of Kings, and men had rights that spring from nature, and nature's laws.
The "creator" in the Declaration of Independence wasn't just "God", as the Declaration was speaking to the entire world. So if your creator was Allah, then it meant Allah to you, if you believed in a turtle, or a maiden rising from the sea, that's your creator. But faith can blind you to that message, and you will see only God.
