Notice that none of them say which God? George Washington consistently referenced a Deistic type of god, not the Christian God.
"Of the 55 delegates to the 1787 Constitutional Convention, 49 were Protestants, and two were Roman Catholics (D. Carroll, and Fitzsimons). Among the Protestant delegates to the Constitutional Convention, 28 were Church of England (or Episcopalian, after the American Revolutionary War was won), eight were Presbyterians, seven were Congregationalists, two were Lutherans, two were Dutch Reformed, and two were Methodists." Founding Fathers of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Now which God do you think they were referring to when writing the U.S. constitution?

A Deistic god most likely, seeing as the majority of the founders would not by considered Christian by any right wingers today. They rejected important things like the trinity, virgin birth, Jesus' divinity. Belonging to a denomination doesn't make their beliefs Christian. Jefferson went to Church regularly, and yet rejected almost every tenant of Christianity.
There's Alah
There's God
There's Krum
There's the entirey of Greek Gods and demi-Gods
There's the entirey of Roman Gods and demi-Gods
There's the many Gods in Shintoism, Taoism, Confucianism, and Jainism
There were many gods worshiped by the Egyptians
And there is of course, no GOD or Gods at all. They are fictional beings, created by man at his weakest to seek out "guidance", but it was only an attempt by the leaders to impose laws and rules against the even weaker.
Different people worship many different Gods. Only someone truly ignorant of human nature would disagree.
Close - different people worship many different gods - but there is only one God.
