Views from the Edge of Science

A new book about Albert Einstein, Einstein, God & the Bible, tries to set the record straight on whether the genius was an atheist or a believer. The following quote makes it clear that while he certainly was not a charismatic or evangelical Christian, neither was he an atheist and he was willing to follow the logical conclusions of his scientific work wherever they led:

"When asked if he had a belief in God, Einstein replied, ‘I am not an atheist.’ He even said, ‘The fanatical atheists … are like slaves who are still feeling the weight of their chains which they have thrown off after hard struggle. They are creatures who – in their grudge against traditional religion as the ‘opium for the people’ – cannot bear the music of the spheres.’ "
