You owe me an apology for lying.

In the end my point is that religion should be taught in public schools.
You owe me an apology for being an idiot and wasting my time.

Please define what god you claim Einstein believed in.

In a letter in 1929 he spoke of himself as a ?disciple? of Spinoza, who looked upon all nature as God. [W]hen asked ? if he believed in God, he ? repl[ied], ?I believe in Spinoza?s God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with the fates and actions of human beings.? His attitude toward Spinoza was one of profound reverence."
Quote:
Spinoza argued that God and Nature were two names for the same reality, namely the single substance (meaning "to stand beneath" rather than "matter") that underlies the universe and of which all lesser "entities" are actually modes or modifications, that all things are determined by Nature to exist and cause effects, and that the complex chain of cause and effect are only understood in part.
So Einstein believed in nature and the laws of nature... not "god".
