Einstein was a big fat atheist - confirmed

I post this, obviously, because Einstein is often held up as an example of a theist scientist. But this letter, revealed today, shows he wasn't. At all.

Nor was hitler a vegetarian, by the way.

OK maybe. And mayeb I should read the whole article before posting. But he wasn't a believer. Time to try again, HC.

My crack research indicates that Einstein's sense of humor makes it really hard to figure out what the man believed or refused to believe, so I think it's best if we all ascribe our belief system to him and be on our way.

Oh, and Hitler may not have been a strict vegetarian, but his biographers seem pretty unified in that he ate very little meat and chided those who did.
