To further support my argument, one of the book of hawking is called: God created the integers(I just thought about it when I was searching for something in my library =P).
"I'm not an atheist, and I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages. The child knows someone must have written those books. It does not know how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn't know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God. We see the universe marvelously arranged and obeying certain laws but only dimly understand these laws. Our limited minds grasp the mysterious force that moves the constellations."
"“I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings.”"
Doesn't sound like an atheist to me and he certainly wasn't anti-religious and thus this image fails on all levels.
But Albert Einstein was Jewish so I don't see the point of him on here.
any explanation is welcome.
He was an Atheist, he used 'God' only as a metaphor, even Hawking has.
Let me clarify that a bit more (I feel I need to show your truth in this):
A LOT of people in the past have been Atheist. It's just that if you said out loud you were then you were executed, exiled, or thrown in jail.
Only in the past few hundred years you hear the stories of people of people who said they were and lived to tell the tale.
And I thought free will was a given promise of Christianity from God...
They are atheist in some sense but they do believe in a form of deity. In a god of order not of belief.

No, he was not. He was a deist or a pantheist, most likely the latter.
holy **** this is the worst thing
i too can imagine him using his nuclear baby to blow them up
hmmmmmm some people need to a bit of a read up on ol' Albert.
Atheist? LOL no.
