Unless, of course, he periodically changed his mind.
- pg 18y agoI never saw any sign of that in the things he said in his adult life. Einstein talked a fair amount about God, and religious people have made much of that, but when he spoke about God he always seemed to be using the word as synonymous with the mysteriously complicated order in the universe. Fenyman said "The imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man." Einstein would have phrased that as "The imagination of God." And there would be posters of Einstein looking benevolent, with that quote printed at the bottom.
- astine 18y agoI dunno, I've never read read much of Einstein, particularly not his opinions on the divine or supernatural; I've frankly never really cared. Considering what I do know however, it's certainly possible that he was an on/off deist. Then again, it doesn't really matter.
