    Einstein wrote: “I do not believe in a personal God. If something is in me which can be called religion, then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.”

    Also, note: “In his writings, there are well-known references to God and frequent discussions of religion. Although Einstein stated that he was religious and that he believed in God, it was in his own specialized sense that he used these terms. Many are aware that Einstein was not religious in the conventional sense, but it will come as a surprise to some to learn that he clearly identified himself as an atheist and as an agnostic.” — Philip W. King, “Einstein’s Credo”

    Really? You missed out Georges Lemaitre, the Belgian PRIEST who was the first person to propose the theory of the expansion of the universe? He should be on top of that list.
