Out of My Later Years: The Scientist, Philosopher, and Man Portrayed Through His Own Words

i didnt finish all the essays, maybe will come back, but read the philosophy of science related ones that interested me (and his theory of relativity, although i def understood little ofc haha).
“if it is one of the goals of religion to liberate mankind in far as possible from the bondage of egocentric cravings, desires, and fears, scientific reasoning can aid religion in another sense.�
“to be sure, when the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large, scientific method in most cases fails us.�
“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.�
(i like the last quote only where religion is defined as without bureaucratic, organized weights, but simply our epistemological existential understanding/lack thereof, which from my understanding of einstein’s work id guess he also would agree.)
