You would think supermike would have known that Einstein believed in God. Way to go alpha8207!!!!!!!
It is interesting to me as well, that the writer in the above article states that he and fellow unbelievers will burn, I guess because God has given to every man a measure of faith to believe in him, and because he has chosen to reject God his own concious is condeming him. Sad.
I am not sure if you were serious or joking with the statement on Einstein, but in case you did not know Einstein was an Atheist.
If you think all those guys were atheists you need to study a lil more and listen to the talking heads a lil less.
I think we have all read enough to know these individuals were non religious to the point of being agnostic or atheist. I find it strange a well read person would make a comment such as this on these individuals.
"If we go back to the beginning we shall find that ignorance and fear created the gods, that fancy, enthusiasm or deceit adorned them, that weakness worships them, that credulity preserves them and that custom, respect and tyranny support them, in order to make the blindness of men serve their own interests."
--Baron Paul Heinrich Dietrich D'Holbach
LOL. the rest was (for?) the economy, stupid, dunno who said that first.
Did I say he was?...Just sayin' who is and who isn't for future reference.
Avec peur, I'll have to say, I didn't say you were saying he was. I just wanted to make sure
Besides, I got a kick out of your compelling urge to come to the defence of 6/8. Did the 2/8 quotient make you gnash your teeth?

And their vague followers who desperately quote them. It feeds their insecurities.
They're like.... I can never understand relativity. So Einstein is a genius. He is an atheist. Now that's something I can do. It's easy.

And the onus passes on to "finding it strange" about a "well read person". The wolf found it strange the grapes are perched so high. The grapes were still grapes.
This is called the diffraction effect. Hit into a stalemate and tend to physics one's way out, deriving personal gratification on blunting something of selective distaste, a feel-good methodology

I find this interesting as well...You have nothing to add to the topic but criticism of some of the posters. Am I wrong or is this a pattern?
While I value everyone's valuable input to this topic, I apologize mine stands devalued, sans peur.
I wish I could expedition to Fiji and add to the OP's statistics
Strange you would say that......I have seen no opinion expressed by you in this thread at all, so how can you say that it is devalued? What is your opinion on the topic?
