Einstein out of context

    The opening Chapter of Dawkins "The God Delusion" talks about some quotes of Albert Einstein taken out of context to imply that he believed in a traditional God or supported religious views of God.

    I'm pretty sure I've read Einstein quotes in the Watchtower publications doing this exact thing - anyone else?

    Yeah, a long time ago i remember reading the first few pages of an Einstein book.

    Two things struck me...

    1). A familiar quote was on page 2 or something - like deep study, eh?

    2). A page later (page 3 in this example) there was a thought there's no way the WT would publish.

    Fuzzy memory but I remember my wife laughing and agreeing.

    Therefore, I must be correct!
