What Do You Believe?

[Zacha341]

“If God is dead, somebody is going to have to take his place. It will be megalomania or erotomania, the drive for power or the drive for pleasure, the clenched fist or the phallus, Hitler or Hugh Hefner.”

― Malcolm Muggeridge

It is sadly humorous to me that some can only think as deep as the religions of humans when asked to ponder the incredible depths of all that lies beyond the tiny amount of reality we can perceive. Religions may be bunk, but they are usually the only thing around even trying to get the grousers and path-gazers to look UP once in a while...

you've never met Neil deGrasse Tyson. Sorry, but scientists paint, for me, a far more amazing universe than ever entered the thoughts of any theologian, except, maybe, Tenzin Gyatso

I think folks freak out over the word religion. There are alot of sites on the study of science and religion/spirituality. Personally I like to side with Einstein... there was a reason he was provided with knowledge that everyone does not have...

"God does not play dice with the universe." - Albert Einstein
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind." - Albert Einstein
"I want to know God's thoughts...the rest are details." - Albert Einstein
"I cannot conceive of a personal God who would directly influence the actions of individuals, or would directly sit in judgment on creatures of his own creation. I cannot do this in spite of the fact that mechanistic causality has, to a certain extent, been placed in doubt by modern science. [He was speaking of Quantum Mechanics and the breaking down of determinism.] My religiosity consists in a humble admiration of the infinitely superior spirit that reveals itself in the little that we, with our weak and transitory understanding, can comprehend of reality. Morality is of the highest importance -- but for us, not for God." - Albert Einstein 'The Human Side', 1954
"Subtle is the Lord, but malicious He is not." - Albert Einstein
"Strange is our situation here upon this earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose." - Albert Einstein
"There remains something subtle, intangible and inexplicable. Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion." - Albert Einstein
"Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune intoned in the distance by an invisible player." - Albert Einstein
"Do you believe in immortality? No, and one life is enough for me." - Albert Einstein
"Scientists were rated as great heretics by the church, but they were truly religious men because of their faith in the orderliness of the universe." - Albert Einstein
"I do not believe that the Good Lord plays dice." - Albert Einstein
"When the solution is simple, God is answering." - Albert Einstein
