Imagination Theory wrote:I think it is important to include the full quotes because Einstein's use of the word god and religion is vague and his usage of them is not popular/common so it is hard to understand him fully if you cut him off.
I think he was an agnostic who believed/identified with Spinoza's god tho, so you'd think there'd be no reason to quote mine him. A god is a god! Right?
I believe Einstein clarified his beliefs as closest to a "Spinoza's God," but which he regarded as a euphemism for "the universe."
