A crucial point is that Einstein stated categorically that he did not believe in a personal God, of the kind assumed by most practising religious people.
Einstein detested the idea of a personal God who rewarded or punished his creatures, or exercised his will by interfering in events. He felt such an idea was intrinsically connected with human selfishness, merely 'a reflection of human frailty'
So what was Einstein's religion? He called it 'cosmic religion' and it was a sense of awe at 'the nobility and marvellous order which are revealed in nature and in the world of thought..
Einstein's view of traditional religion was somewhat ambivalent. He detested any idea of indoctrination or fundamentalism, but admitted that conventional religions had a role in setting ethical standards

Smart man. No matter how great his mind he was still in awe of the universe. How he would have enjoyed what we can now see.

I think Einstein was right about there not being a personal God. If there was, innocent children would not suffer and die in wars or by the hand of parents who are supposed to be their protecters. People who say it was Gods will or he let them suffer and die to teach us a lesson really need their heads examined and do not deserve to have a child in their life.

Lead by old men in churches, many with no children - well legitimate children, if you get me.

Albert Einstein Quotes on Religion

The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description. If there is any religion that could cope with modern scientific needs it would be Buddhism. (Albert Einstein)
