Mikado is correct.
The idea that Deism was ever mainstream is a stretch
It was certainly mainstream amongst a certain social class, and often did not actually involve rejecting Christianity in any serious sense (quite a few Anglican clergy of the 18th century could be described in those terms).
All philosophy was confined to the elite at that time, though. I don't believe Colonial America even had majority literacy although it was probably above the European average.
Depends on which group of people you consider. For white males literacy ran from a bare majority in the Southern colonies to basically everyone who could learn to read doing so in New England. Females less so, but still a substantial majority in New England.
