^^^I agree, weak indeed. If it weren't time for me to go to bed, I'd say more. That's the best excuse I've heard for the libs intolerance in a long time, though. Creative.
The last two elections that happen, some of them did argue, but now they kept their mouth shut because they now know how stupid they were. I don't think they even bother to vote this time.
The argument you try to set up (Einstein = popular shorthand for "world's best scientist" > Einstein believed in God > scientists who don't believe in God are not good scientists) is fallacious - and doubly so, because Einstein didnt believe in "God."

"Like other great scientists he does not fit the boxes in which popular polemicists like to pigeonhole him," said Brooke. "It is clear for example that he had respect for the religious values enshrined within Judaic and Christian traditions ... but what he understood by religion was something far more subtle than what is usually meant by the word in popular discussion."
Despite his categorical rejection of conventional religion, Brooke said that Einstein became angry when his views were appropriated by evangelists for atheism. He was offended by their lack of humility and once wrote. "The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility."

Did you read your own article?
Show me where he does not believe in a "god"
He didnt believe in an organized-religion "God." But this doesn't matter. The point is, your argument presents a fallacy and there's nothing weak about the post you were criticizing.
