~ said: no God ever.
I had thought of posting in the quote section, but, it isn't exactly a verifiable quote.
The truth. Albert Einstein used the word "God" but he didn't believe in God. This is an old video.
I would have to find my post or comment, but I had posted something about Einstein had said he believed in the "God of Spinoza." Then, as I pointed out in my post, The "God" of Spinoza is just about identical to biblical description for what a God is. I found an email I sent to Standard website about their conflicting statements, I'll copy the email below. I found somethings, copied below.
“Do you believe in God?” In response Einstein made an even clearer distinction between the awe humans feel when faced with the vastness, complexity and harmony of nature, and the belief in a god that monitors ethical behavior and punishes the wicked. He admired the Dutch Jewish philosopher Baruch Spinoza, and wrote: “I believe in Spinoza’s god, who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a god who concerns himself with the fate and the doings of mankind.” [blogs.scientificamerican.com]
In the text below show be a link to stanford website about Spinoza's God.
Your website is saying that modern Judeo-Christian conception is not biblical BUT Spinoza's God is a paraphrase, rephrase or plagerzing of biblical text.
So to say, Spinoza's God is more inline with biblical text than modern Judeo-Christian conception.
I was reading through your website [plato.stanford.edu]
From your section 2.1 God or Natur year old biblical text than current modern
According to the traditional Judeo-Christian conception of divinity, God is a transcendent creator, a being who causes a world distinct from himself to come into being by creating it out of nothing.
By contrast, Spinoza’s God is the cause of all things because all things follow causally and necessarily from the divine nature.
Biblically, it is written,
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Genesis 1:2
one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. Ephesians 4:6
"For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together." Colossians 1:16-17
From Genesis it clearly indicates "ruach" elohim hovering over the "waters" .
What ever "waters" is, not for sure, but it is not indicating created from nothing.
@barjoe When asking the Internet a question, it’s important to ask the right question.
If you ask “Was Einstein a scientist?”, it says he was.
If you ask “Did Einstein use the scientific method?” it says he was a theoretical physicist, so did not do the experimental parts.
Einstein’s theory of relativity is in trouble. However, both it and Trump’s claim that he won the election have believers.
