Anyone here a fan of Albert Einstein? Did he believe in the existence of god? According to Wikipedia ( though the credibility of this source is doubtful, but its a good reference), Albert Einstein did not believe in personal god but pantheistic god. Pantheistic god, frankly, I need to do a lot of reading on pantheistic god, but to explain it precisely and concisely, pantheistic god is referring to the universe, if he believed in god, the only god that he could think of is the god of beauty that created such complex yet beautiful universe. Here is a sentence said by Einstein : I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls. Enough for me the mystery of the eternity of life, and the inkling of the marvellous structure of reality, together with the single-hearted endeavour to comprehend a portion, be it never so tiny, of the reason that manifests itself in nature. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Albert_Einstein
