Poor God

[edit]

I read an anecdote about Einstein once, where he was asked what he would have done had the obsevations of the eclipse been different by those predicted by his theories, and he answered he would have pittied our dear God, for messing up, because the theory is correct. I can't seem to trace it, nor do I know if it is real or fake. Could someone help me out on this one?

I remember reading something similar. If you find a source, it would be good to add to wikiquotes [[1]]. Tom Ruen (talk) 04:34, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Today I added a few sentences into the connection to The Theory of Relativity section and then will be going through and cleaning up the whole page to make sure it reads fluent to reader. I will also be checking for grammatical errors.Elexis-Wohlgemuth (talk) 13:57, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
