I hope those are real quotes. There are quite a few fake Einstein quotes floating around the web.

They were real, but taken out of the context.

But they made my point. Einstein is a believer, but out of confessional religion. Like Gödel.

Didn't Godel update the "ontological argument for the existence of God" ? I suppose that doesn't say anything about what God is (guy with a long beard, or chthulhu, or white light...)

Gödel has formalized St-Anselmus notion of God in ... The Leinizian modal logic. Then he proved his existence.

He did this just to illustrate that rigor can exist in Theology.

I am not sure he really believed in St-Anselmus notion of God, and I doubt he really took Leibniz modal logic as the only correct metaphysical account of the alethic (Leibnizian) modal logic.

Open problem: does the inner god of the machine believes in St- Anselmus-Gödel God? (= can we translate the proof of God existence into S4Grz?).

More on Leibniz modal logic soon.
