Once again, your reading comprehension fails you. Imagine my surprise.
Why would Einstein be mad at me? Because I clearly said he was not an atheist?
Quote:they quote me for support of such views.See that part? I didn't quote him to support atheism. I quoted him to support the fact that his concept of god was utterly foreign to anything like your anthropomorphic, Iron Age, good vs evil personal creator-god fables.
Now, if I considered you intelligent, I would attempt to explain what Spinoza's ideas about "god" were (and why they are no longer feasible or necessary). But his ideas were pretty complex; doubtless it would fly right over your head, due in large part to your noted inability to correctly interpret the words you read. So I'm afraid I won't be bothered to waste my time.
