May I add another quote?
​
It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.
​
[Albert Einstein, 1954, from "Albert Einstein: The Human Side", edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffman, Princeton University Press]
​
The spin put on Einstein's beliefs at, say, Real Questions. Real Answers. Bible Based. - BibleAsk
is not too similar to these quotes somehow.

Re: nope
taking care not to allow the concept of god to render him subject to the responsibilities a god might impose on one's lifestyle

We all know Dr E. was such a party hound....

Buz, I see that line of bullshit so often from you fundiforms that I want to barf. I'll bet the rent that I'm just a freakin' "moral" as you are, and I've got Benny Hinn beat all to hell and gone.

Re: nope
I'm sure you are aware that partying is not all there is to the word/term lifestyle.

Yeah, there's barbequeing kittens and babies, too.....
