Here are some quotes you can check.100 years ago, Albert Einstein published three papers that rocked the world. These papers proved the existence of the atom, introduced the theory of relativity, and described quantum mechanics.
Pretty good debut for a 26 year old scientist, huh?
His equations for relativity indicated that the universe was expanding. This bothered him, because if it was expanding, it must have had a beginning and a beginner. Since neither of these appealed to him, Einstein introduced a 'fudge factor' that ensured a 'steady state' universe, one that had no beginning or end.
But in 1929, Edwin Hubble showed that the furthest galaxies were fleeing away from each other, just as the Big Bang model predicted. So in 1931, Einstein embraced what would later be known as the Big Bang theory, saying, "This is the most beautiful and satisfactory explanation of creation to which I have ever listened." He referred to the 'fudge factor' to achieve a steady-state universe as the biggest blunder of his career.
Einstein's theories have been thoroughly proved and verified by experiments and measurements. But there's an even more important implication of Einstein's discovery. Not only does the universe have a beginning, but time itself, our own dimension of cause and effect, began with the Big Bang.
That's right -- time itself does not exist before then. The very line of time begins with that creation event. Matter, energy, time and space were created in an instant by an intelligence outside of space and time.
About this intelligence, Albert Einstein wrote in his book "The World As I See It" that the harmony of natural law "Reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection."*
He went on to write, "Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe-- a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble."*

Of course Einstein believed in God. After all, he was a Jew, and he knew that after Caiphas and Co. handed Jesus over for execution in the first century A.D., all hell was bound to come down on his head. Eventually.
And who can send Hell down on someone's head when Hell is down below to begin with?

You bible thumpers NEVER ever give up do you? I'm really starting to believe Emperor Decius was quite right to try to remove christianity from the Roman Empire back in the day....

Worse than a plague of rats.....
If yan argument why do you come to the reliious side? we are all Christians around here. Even conrad is being to believe.

Are You saying that You are starting to believe that genocide is ever ok to do? That scares the PSF out of me!

Amen. It's nice to see that even a scientist can back up that the Big Bang was created by someone superior to the human race.
galrads: Are You saying that You are starting to believe that genocide is ever ok to do? That scares the PSF out of me!
YES Genocide is not only okay, it is the necessary good that must take place in world full of freaks. The first to go? All the cross-dressing atheists, and closet believers! Find one you find the others!!
I don't know what Albert believed and I really don't care.
I am Christian and I do have a spiritual side but the idea of shoving Christianity down other's throats is down right appalling.
"Do onto others as you would have others do onto you!"
Any Christian would recognize this.
Would you want a Muslim trying to push their religion down your throat? Of course not. Its the same as a Christian trying to push Christianity down a Muslims or anyone else's throat.
Respect thy neighbour and do onto others as you would have done onto yourself.
