Did Einstein prove the existence of God with a mathematical equation?

Question

My English teacher told my class about it, but wasn't specific.
Has anyone heard about this? Do you know what it was?

Answer 1

Einstein said something to the extent that the equations of the universe are so complex that there had to be a God that designed these perfect equations.

He is quoted as saying, "I want to know God's thoughts."

Answer 2

In the early years of Albert Einstein, he didn’t believe that his own equations were right. He wanted to believe that the universe was stationary and the galaxies were not expanding away from each other. To counteract his equations, Einstein originally proposed a new gravitational force that would cancel out the expansion of the universe.

Einstein’s view changed in 1929 when Edwin Hubble proved that the galaxies were expanding away from each other just as Einstein’s original general relativity calculations predicted. With this evidence provided by Hubble, Einstein eventually acknowledged "the necessity for a beginning," [[1]:100] and "the presence of a superior reasoning power"

Answer 3

No... *sigh* Einstein did not believe in a "personal god" of religions, nor was he an atheist.

He defined god as the laws of physics, specifically denied a religious god, and never created an equation that proved god. He did create the equation E=mc2, which simply defines energy as equal to mass times speed of light squared. It is mathematically shown true, but does not prove any god other than one law of physics.

Answer 4

No Einstein was a pantheist, he did not believe in a personal god. To Einstein, the majesty of the universe itself was god.

As far as his mathematical work, Einstein once said that the most powerful force in the universe was compounding interest. He was not referring to finance, but rather the mathematical basis of the self organizing physics/chemistry/biology of the universe, where the simple can evolve complexity.

Answer 5

If Einstein proved the existence of God, he wouldn't have been an atheist, now, would he?

Answer 6

No. That is just spam. Someone made that up and sent it around.

The following is from Science, Philosophy, and Religion, A Symposium, published by the Conference on Science, Philosophy and Religion in Their Relation to the Democratic Way of Life, Inc., New York, 1941.

"The more a man is imbued with the ordered regularity of all events the firmer becomes his conviction that there is no room left by the side of this ordered regularity for causes of a different nature. For him neither the rule of human nor the rule of divine will exists as an independent cause of natural events. To be sure, the doctrine of a personal God interfering with natural events could never be *refuted* [italics his], in the real sense, by science, for this doctrine can always take refuge in those domains in which scientific knowledge has not yet been able to set foot.

"But I am convinced that such behavior on the part of representatives of religion would not only be unworthy but also fatal. For a doctrine which is to maintain itself not in clear light but only in the dark, will of necessity lose its effect on mankind, with incalculable harm to human progress. In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal God, that is, give up that source of fear and hope which in the past placed such vast power in the hands of priests. In their labors they will have to avail themselves of those forces which are capable of cultivating the Good, the True, and the Beautiful in humanity itself. This is, to be sure, a more difficult but an incomparably more worthy task..." Albert Eistein

Answer 7

Your english teacher is a liar.

Btw, Einstein was an atheist.

Answer 8

It's against the law for your English teacher to tell you that. You should have him fired.

Answer 9

That's the dumbest thing I ever heard.

Answer 10

No.

BTW: He believed in Spinoza's god.
