To: Bob Ingersoll
Not true. .....elite scientist.... be willing to bet.... Again, sorry Bob both Newton and Einstien were true believers in the creator. On Quantum Theory: Enstien said he did not believe God plays dice.... We in FR have very poor openion on people with an "elite" attached to their profession. Newton and Einstien are the 2 Pillars of modern science, then there are the rest of them. What you bet on, that you can put yourself in the minds of Newton and Einstien and hence know exactly whether they really believe in God or just intimidated by the ultra rightwing Christians. That would not be fair to you, and hence I would not take that advantage.

Einstein was a pantheist; he did not believe in a personal creator, nor did he ever indicate belief in an afterlife.

Newton was also a firm believer in the sound principles of alchemy. He got physics on earth right (though much of what he discovered was later shown to be not entirely accurate). That dosn't mean that he as infallable in all respects.
