QUOTE: 9. “'The more I study science the more I believe in God.” (Einstein, as cited in Holt 1997). (David's bold)

David’s comment: Note my bold at #9. Science brings one to God. He sounds more theist than deist to me.

Dhw ("Evolution and God", 22 March at 12.33): Einstein may also have been a deist, which again tells us nothing about the mechanisms for evolution.

With your insistence on your God hiding himself, and on not attributing any human qualities to him, and on having him merely observe us trying to solve the problems he has set us, you sound more deist than theist to me.
