Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. -- Albert Einstein

Albert Einsteins theory of relativity said it all. It pointed to the fact Einstein had to be conscious of and a believer in life after death to have formulated what he did. I was very proud after becoming a believer in our spirit nature to fully grasp the awesome significance of the theory of relativity. - Zechariah
Actually Einstein said this:
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms. -- Albert Einstein

How dare some ignorant people say the Bible contains about a thousand mistakes? ?
Genesis 1:16
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the nightFocus 1,749
Fact: For any point on earth, the Moon is on average above the horizon for exactly as long during the day as it is during the night..
Genesis 30:37-9
And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods. And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink. And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.Focus 1,782

Focus I actually think the Bible is quite accurate. Take this quote for instance:
There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. -- Ezekiel 23:20 (NIV)
