"Einstein claimed to be an agnostic..."

Well there you go again... Redefining words to suit your own "self serving" needs. Of course he did. Why then do you feel the need to call him a liar and pretend he was an Atheist?

"You think you are important only because you are stupid, deluded, conceited, and dumb as all Hell."

Whoa, slow down there Skippy. All your name calling doesn't change the fact that you claimed Einstein was an Atheist when you clearly knew he wasn't.

"He thought Christians had ``feeble minds``. "

Doesn't make him an Atheist.

"And he thought it was delusional and beyond arrogant to believe in a personal god."

That doesn't make him an Atheist either.

"He knew that the earth was not important to the universe. It was a grain of sand."

OK: and that makes him an Atheist: HOW?

"He knew that he was not important in that sense, either. He was a grain of sand on the earth--where life winks in and out continuously trillions and trillions of times a second."

So He thought he was less than a WORM. Still no Atheist....

Einstein claimed to be an agnostic which means he did not believe in any god. He thought Christians had ``feeble minds``. And he thought it was delusional and beyond arrogant to believe in a personal god. He knew that the earth was not important to the universe.

Though the special effects are pretty spectacular at times, the potential energy that inhabits the atom & flux of electromagnetic radiation & excited ions, who's got the monopoly on wonder? Answer: No one.

To a primitive human, this would indeed seem the work of the gods.....

When asked about religion, Einstein would answer: "My god is Spinoza's god".

Of course no one knew what that meant :).
