E Idea Of A Personal God Is Quite Alien To Me And Seems Even Naive. However, I Am Also Not A "freethinker" In The Usual Sense Of The Word Because I Find That This Is In The Main An Attitude Nourished Exclusively By An Opposition Against Naive Superstition.

It Is This Consciousness And Humility I Miss In The Freethinker Mentality. Sincerely Yours, Albert Einstein.
