No. While it was reported that he may have been a member of the hellfire club,which was rumored(though never confirmed) to be satanist in nature, we see through the examination of literally hundreds of historical sources that Benjamin Franklin was an outstandingly devout Christian who was raised in an exceedingly pious family. One of his best friends was a preacher named George Whitefield and he had said that he was deeply affected by the works of Cotton Mathers a famous preacher and writer of the enlightenment period.

Throughout his adult years Franklin was noted for spreading his ideas of religious acceptance.
