Einstein was a Creationist.

Bullsh*t!

Einstein was an empiricist above all. "Creationism" didn't exist during his lifetime.

Yes, he wrote and spoke about his religious feelings, but not in reference to any particular religion.

I did not cite his religion, although he was a non-practising Jew. When I said 'creationist' I also separated Einstein from the Bible-pounders. He was very deliberate in his estimation that the universe evidenced a guiding hand. I do not recall him ever citing a Bible passage...which would have been interesting since he was a Jew.

The man had a faith in God and his work, in his own words, tended to reinforce that belief.

I happen to know a man who actually worked with Einstein at one point in his life... and spoke with him frequently about God. Einstein WAS a creationist.
