Re: Thought of the Day Hear the Mind of Albert Einstein: In all ernestness and sincerity, I am very religious. I believe that God is the greatest scientist of all time - and of all space. How ridiculous it is to make evolution the enemy of God. What could be more elegant, more simple, more brilliant, more economical, more creative, indeed more divine than a planet with millions of life forms, distinct and yet interactive, all ultimately derived from accumulated variations in a single double-stranded molecule, pliable and fecund enough to give us mollusks and mice, Newton and Einstein? As the late physicist Leon Lederman said, "We hope to explain the entire universe in a single, simple formula that you can wear on your T-shirt." In a recent book Max Jammer, Rector Emeritus of Bar Lan University in Jerusalem, a former colleague of Albert Einstein at Princeton, claims that Einstein's understanding of physics and his understanding of religion were profoundly bound together, for it seemed to Einstein that nature exhibited traces of God quite like "a natural theology." Late in his life in a speech delivered in Berlin, Einstein gave this illuminating account of himself: "As a child I received instruction both in the Bible and in the Talmud. I am a Jew, but I am enthralled by the luminous figure of the Nazarene... No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life... My consciousness of belonging to the invisible community of those who strive for truth, beauty, and justice has preserved me from feeling isolated. The most beautiful and deepest experience a man can have is the sense of the mysterious. It is the underlying principle of religion as well as all serious endeavour in art and science. He who never had this experience seems to me, if not dead, then at least blind. To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is something that our mind cannot grasp and whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly and as a feeble reflection, this is religiousness. In this sense I am religious. To me it suffices to wonder at these secrets and to attempt humbly to grasp with my mind a mere image of the lofty structure of all that is there. ... Science can only be created by those who are thoroughly imbued with the aspiration toward truth and understanding. In the nature of things nothing accidental is granted, but all things are determined by the necessity of the divine nature for existing and working in a certain way. In short, there is nothing accidental in nature. God does not play dice. This source of feeling, however, springs from the sphere of religion. To this there also belongs the faith in the possibility that the regulations valid for the world of existence are rational, that is, comprehensible to reason. I cannot conceive of a genuine scientist without that profound faith. The situation may be expressed by an image: science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind" - Max Jammer, Einstein und Die Religion, Konstantz, 1995 |

Re: Thought of the Day There is always a way You are stronger than anything standing in your way. Because you have a purpose that cannot be denied. Often that purpose is difficult and inconvenient to follow. Yet it is never impossible to follow. There is always a way. If the path you're on is blocked, look for another route, because it is surely there. You can be flexible, innovative, determined and persistent. You can imagine any possibility, and then work to make that possibility real. Every moment, every circumstance, every turn of events presents you with an opportunity to act. Take those opportunities, make those actions come to life, and express the purpose that is uniquely you. Step up and embrace the responsibility for moving your life forward. Whatever may come, there is always a way. -- Ralph Marston |
