Belief in God "childish superstition" - Einstein

Photo & story credit to AFP
A letter, penned by Einstein, is about to hit the auction block. In the letter Einstein states his opinions about the belief in god & Judaism in general. Taking time to point out that Jews are not the 'chosen people'. For those taking notes, Einstein's a proud Jew. This write up has a good basic summary of the letter & his thoughts... I am sure plenty more can be fished up from the internet tubes.

"The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish." ~Albert "Super Smart Monkey" Einstein

If I find the letter in it's entirety I will post it.
