Organized People Are Just Too Lazy To

We Believe That An Informed Citizenry Will Act For Life And Not For Death.

I Find It Difficult To Believe That I Belong To Such An Idiotic, Rotten Species - The Species That Actually Boasts Of Its Freedom Of Will, Heroism On Command, Senseless Violence, And All Of The Loathsome Nonsense That Goes By The Name Of Patriotism.

E Idea Of A Personal God Is Quite Alien To Me And Seems Even Naive. However, I Am Also Not A "freethinker" In The Usual Sense Of The Word Because I Find That This Is In The Main An Attitude Nourished Exclusively By An Opposition Against Naive Superstition. My Feeling Is Insofar Religious As I Am Imbued With The Consciousness Of The Insuffiency Of The Human Mind To Understand Deeply The Harmony Of The Universe Which We Try To Formulate As "laws Of Nature." It Is This Consciousness And Humility I Miss In The Freethinker Mentality. Sincerely Yours, Albert Einstein.

The Really Valuable Thing In The Pageant Of Human Life Seems To Me Not The Political State, But The Creative, Sentient Individual, The Personality; It Alone Creates The Noble And The Sublime, While The Herd As Such Remains Dull In Thought And Dull In Feeling.

During The Youthful Period Of Mankind's Spiritual Evolution Human Fantasy Created Gods In Man's Own Image, Who, By The Operations Of Their Will Were Supposed To Determine, Or At Any Rate To Influence, The Phenomenal World. Man Sought To Alter The Disposition Of These Gods In His Own Favour By Means Of Magic And Prayer.
