We are in the positionofa little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages. The child knows someone must have written those books.It does not know how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangements of the books,but doesn't know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God." Abert Einstein

Einstein wrote a letter before he died that went up for auction a while back. In it, he rejected the notion that he believed in any religious sort of god, and you should look that up before posting cherry picked quotes: Einstein was, if anything, a believer in Spinoza's god, more properly called a wonderment at nature.

Not that I need to respond to an argument from authority, anyway.
