It doesn't matter that we don't know that there is no magic beard guy. We can go about our lives and live them as if there were no MBG simply because to even acknowledge the possibility is silly without at least some evidence.

As to the Constitution, you might want to read the book Moral Minority, a book exploring exactly how "Christian" the founders and Constitution authors really were. Short answer: They weren't. The Constitution was a document that allows people to abandon religious tradition in the new secular realm they were crafting, something completely new and untried in an age when rulers were generally tied to the will of god for the right to keep ruling.

I am aware that we were fortunate that our founders were more under the heady sway of the enlightenment than medievalism, but they did not exactly ban faith, either. And if you were an atheist back then, you might find it circumscribing living in one of the states.

How would you answer this:
