Default Re: Sklansky\'s Intelligence Weighting as it Relates to God

[ QUOTE ]

Btw- Does anyone know if Einstein's comment, "God does not throw dice" was made tongue-in-cheek? Or did he in fact acknowledge the possible existence of God?

[/ QUOTE ]

Einstein's dice comment was meant to show his discomfort with emerging quantum theory, it had no religious meaning at all. Many people use this quote to show that Einstein was religious. Here is his response to them:

"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. 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."
