"higher state of being", "heaven", "Jesus saved us".I agree Einstein was one of the greatest scientists in history.
As for being religious, I agree, too, but there is more than that. I agree through worshipping that we can achieve a higher state of being or power, but we can elevate ourselves to heaven by believing Jesus saved us. IOW, we do good works for Christianity, but we also have a relationship with God in believing that he sent his only son to save us from original sin.
Also is the implication of the Big Rip, by which the universe expands forever.From the "Singularity" resulting in a "Big-Bang" is the implication of a Future contraction back into that "Singularity"; hence a Big Contraction.
Einstein didn't use the word "God", but he did say a Spirit of great intelligence was running the universe. Are you smarter than Einstein?"God" is another way of saying "I have no idea".
Don't edit my words. When you quote me, quote me correctly or don't bother responding.The first half of you post was about Einstein being a deist. I agree with Einstein. I was responding to the second part of your post.
Einstein was a pretty smart guy. Jesus said "God is a Spirit". Remember that as you read this."God" is another way of saying "I have no idea".

Oh sister"higher state of being", "heaven", "Jesus saved us".
Lots of slogans but no reason for anyone to accept any of it. Tales and fables written by largely unknown authors who lived with fears and superstitious beliefs of what they didn't understand.
It seems you who need an angry father figure to keep you from misbehaving and to remove the hate /self-hate you harbor.

It prolly means that to you and the atheists here, but God means things such as truth and real science. The creationists are constantly amazed by God's work and how he did/does things. For example, the power involved in the EMS is no simple feat."God" is another way of saying "I have no idea".
I am truly astounded by the universe - the delicate balance of the elementary forces and particles, the hugeness, the age; the elementary particles that give rise to a wide variety of stellar structures down to the elements, atoms, molecules and life.Einstein didn't use the word "God", but he did say a Spirit of great intelligence was running the universe. Are you smarter than Einstein?
An intelligent Spirit means there is a Creator behind all this. A designer.I am truly astounded by the universe - the delicate balance of the elementary forces and particles, the hugeness, the age; the elementary particles that give rise to a wide variety of stellar structures down to the elements, atoms, molecules and life.
The cause of this is unknown. I have no idea of the entity if there was one behind the creation. Saying god did it is vacuous. Religious people want to use the word "God" but I prefer the word "Entity", because god also refers to some sort of animate being that you pray to and praise and perform rituals for.
Like Einstein, I think the study of basic physics is the highest form of response to the mysteries of the universe. He uses the words, spirit and intelligence, but I prefer the more inanimate term, entity.

Right, but I think that is a bit too specific since we really don't know what is behind the laws of physics and the huge mass of the universe. Intelligence is more of a human term.An intelligent Spirit means there is a Creator behind all this. A designer.
And that idea explains nothing, yields no useful predictions, and is not needed in any scientific process. So its usefulness seems limited to making ourselves feel nice about a universe that defies the firm grasp of our very limited little brains.Right, but I think that is a bit too specific since we really don't know what is behind the laws of physics and the huge mass of the universe.

Right. As I said before "god" is a substitute for the phrase, "I have no idea".And that idea explains nothing, yields no useful predictions, and is not needed in any scientific process.

A synonym reallyRight. As I said before "god" is a substitute for the phrase, "I have no idea".
Nothing in the natural world indicates any past or current participation or meddling by spirits, supernatural entities or gods of any kind.An intelligent Spirit means there is a Creator behind all this. A designer.
Yes, I had to think about that. When you consider the crystal spheres of Aristotle; the heliocentricity of Copernicus; Galileo; YEC; Hubble; etc. ... each "now we know" of history was really a reduction and redefinition of the domain of their god.A synonym really
God is behind all this. It just didn't suddenly happen. It's too intricate. Take a bunch of Scrabble blocks and toss them on the table until they all spell a coherent sentence.Right, but I think that is a bit too specific since we really don't know what is behind the laws of physics and the huge mass of the universe.

Do you actually know what God is?God is behind all this. It just didn't suddenly happen. It's too intricate. Take a bunch of Scrabble blocks and toss them on the table until they all spell a coherent sentence.
Yes. The Creator of the universe.Do you actually know what God is?
