Thank you for acknowledging and defending Einstein's Spinoza-inspired deism.
Einstein was, of course, Jewish and escaped from Nazi persecution only because he was well known and highly respected outside Germany.
I'll repeat: there are no famous quotes from Einstein on evolution itself, though he is well known for opposition to the idea that "G*d plays dice with the world", which might be said to describe evolution's "random" mutations and natural selection.
My personal opinion is that while G*d likely does not "play dice", because of the unsavory crowd there, if you go to many church basements on some evenings, there can be no doubt whatever that G*d loves Bingo!
;-)
You are right that I should have reiterated that there are no direct quotations from Einstein on evolution, but rather quotations about G-d and the universe and random chance from which one could possibly (likely in my opinion) infer that he was talking at least in part about evolution. Actually find it interesting that Einstein never did talk about evolution explicitly; maybe the debate over it was too politicized for his tastes even back then?
