Einstein the Agnostic? actually theist or deist (Agnosticism)

QUOTE: "In February 1954, just 14 months before he [Einstein] died, he wrote in a letter to the American physicist David Bohm: ‘If God created the world, his primary concern was certainly not to make its understanding easy for us.'’

DAVID: Perhaps more deist than agnostic.

Once more, many thanks for a great article, and a great quote, which I imagine being accompanied by a twinkle in the eye.

Deism offers a view of God which seems to me to fit in very well with life's history as we know it (i.e. allowing life to pursue its own course).
