[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Einstein and Darwin would have belonged to the church of the flying spaghetti monster. Fact is, you can't use logic to prove or disprove God's existence. Although many have tried. The question is more a question of your faith. As a secular humanist, I have no faith in deities.[/quote]

“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."

- Albert Einstein

But, have you actually read Spinoza? Spinoza, himself, is often regarded as an atheist. He's certainly no deist. We could ontologically split hairs all day .... but I have laundry to do.[/quote]

My guess is that this person hasn't read or studied Spinoza and found a list of atheist quotes somewhere.

As someone who has an advanced degree in philosophy, most of the philosophers who formed the basis of modern scientific inquiry were not outright atheists but actually seemed more akin to agnostics.  They wouldn't make declarative statements about something that is not observable and subject to scientific inquiry.

I would go on, but I, too, have laundry.[/quote]
