Einstein was not even a deist, he used the term "God" as metaphor for nature. He was a public figure and unfortunately and especially back then he had to speak as not to offend so he spoke in those terms to water down his "off" position. He did not believe in the god of the Jews or bible, his last letter said as much.
Einstein's words are far to often twisted by apologists to paint him as a religious person.
