Einstein's God
CLICK HERE TO ENTER ZOOM ROOM 4
Einstein said “science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind”. The “person of the century” was quizzed repeatedly about his views of God. In this talk, we will clarify your views of what science and religion are and whether they conflict. Then Einstein will buy into the argument in his own words. We will discover that his genius extended beyond the scientific to a deep understanding of man and God.
