An Agnostic? An atheist? He believed in the God of Spinoza. Depending on your religious beliefs you may consider it reasonable, false or even sacrilegious. That is the problem with religion - they all hold different beliefs and can not all be correct. > > Maybe Einstein demonstrated "indirectly" God existence. > Why do science and faith do not talk each other? Because science is based on the idea of test, hypothesize, test, hypothesize over and over. The existence of a God is not amenable to testing (it must be falsifiable) so science, by its very definition, is not concerned about it. If you can think of a test to check on the God hypothesis (ie how it could be falsifiable) then us know. Providing it stands up to scrutiny then it can become part of science. Trouble is no one has been able to think of any that is acceptable to both theologians and scientists. > > I think Einstein is good for this dialogue between science and Faith. > I think that Power Of God is important for science too. > Faith do not need prooves of science, but Einstein made something for > Faith!! > > What do you think of that? I think you do not understand what science is. Thanks Bill
