Free will. I don’t believe in compulsory religion but there are not many communists and socialists who share that sentiment. Your characterization of the founder’s concept of God/Creator is pretty broad and don’t think that was there intent based on personal writings of many of the founders. Money can be your God if you chose. Considering yourself God is the tendency our current society is heading towards with no objective truth or moral belief. But again I’m not taking about forcing beliefs on anyone, but evangelism and sharing the gospel as a Christian is my duty.

The Founders had the wit to separate their personal beliefs from the crafting of a secular republic within which people of any belief system could live safely. Of course we know from our earliest history that religious sects have done their best to harass and/or exterminate those of different beliefs.

Evangelism certainly qualifies as pestering though you are free to pester at will.
