Tristan Whitefield quoted a Einstein: "I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty." Then Tristan said, "This makes more sense to me than your fiction book."

Albert Einstein was not an atheist. He hated it when atheists said that he was one of theirs. He flatly said, "I am not an atheist." However, he didn't like the fact that the God of the Bible said, "You shall not commit adultery" (see if you can figure why). So Einstein made up his own version of God—one with which he felt more comfortable. This is very common for sinful humanity. It's call "idolatry," and is a transgression of the First of the Ten Commandments: “You shall have no other gods before Me.”
