@dhalsim-1 ok, well forgive me if I brush aside your embarrassingly juvenile insults (grow up, my friend, the subject is far too complex to be riddling it with childish insults like yours). You have, whether you accept it or not, defeated your own arguments several times on this subject. Einstein didn't believe in god as a creator no matter how many times you convince yourself he did, he believed in Spinoza's version of god, which as I've already stated, was "the sum of the natural and physical laws of the universe and certainly not an individual entity or creator". And his statement "god does not play dice with the universe" was never what you think it was; Einstein even cleared up any confusion when he later wrote, in 1954, "I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it."
And for someone who claims they're not religious, you seem determined to attribute the universe to god and even more determined to convince yourself that Einstein's beliefs somehow matched yours, when in fact, they directly oppose your beliefs.

@maggielostfairy1108 Men don't really walk on water, trees don't really talk, Zeus didn't really give birth to his daughters via his forehead, Mohammed didn't really walk without casting a shadow, Thor's mighty hammer isn't really what causes thunder. This stuff is for children, not grown adults. The Bible stole many of its stories from a work written hundreds of years earlier - (a naked couple in a garden outcast for eating forbidden food, Noah and the flood, a tempting serpent, people being born from a rib). Research it yourself, the work is called "Epic of Gilgamesh" - the Bible literally copied many of the events in that work and just reworded them. There's a good reason your god, like all gods, is invisible. See if you can figure out why he is.

@dhalsim-1 ok lol, cancel the request to stop the childish insults and the dodging of questions and the requests to "study" and add "stop using strawman arguments" to the list. Where did I say, anywhere, "The universe is not an ordered construct"? I didn't say that anywhere. Where did I say "Scientists were trying to eliminate possibilities of randomness in order to prove god"? I didn't say that anywhere, either. In fact, that's closer to what YOU said than what I said. Look, what is your entire point here, what is it it you're trying to say? Here's mine. "I don't believe in any of the religions or any of the gods represented by them and I believe they were all invented by well-intentioned humans." That's it. That's my entire point. Without any insults, or requests to study, or strawman arguments, what's yours?
