- Albert Einstein

About this Quote

Albert Einstein's quote recommends that he does not think in the traditional principle of God as provided by theology. He does not think in a God who rewards great and punishes wicked, which is a typical belief in numerous religions. This could mean that Einstein does not believe in a God who is a judge, however rather a God who gives love and understanding. He may have believed in a greater power, however not one that is so concentrated on reward and punishment. Rather, he may have believed in a God who is more worried with the spiritual development of humanity. He might have believed in a God who is more worried with the advancement of our moral character and our capability to enjoy and understand one another. Eventually, Einstein's quote suggests that he did not believe in a God who is a judge, but rather a God who is a source of love and understanding.
