Yes, it is dear, Andrea! Before editing it I had another analogy: "A baboon criticizing Venus for her looks!" Haha But I thought it might cause trouble so I changed to the analogy of Einstein! Thank you!

Yup. There's a bit of ego implied in criticizing it as well.

Re-reading your comment came to understand that you insinuate there is ego involved from my part by criticizing those who criticize God. If I am right my friend, Tom, then in my statement the ego involved is less than the ego involved in your statement for mine is the lesser evil since defends God ( He doesn't need it) while with your statement you defend those who attack God, therefore the ego involved in your statement surpasses mine! Thank you and may God bless you, even if you defend His attackers! Hahaha!

My friend, Tom, we surpass the ego for there is hubris from the part of Man as far as God is concerned and a lot of stupidity on the part of the ignorant in the case of Einstein! Thank you for visiting and commenting!
