There was one element of your article that stood out particularly strongly to me: you seem to recognize that Einstein operated at a level above your own, but yet you appear to mock his deism.
If Einstein functioned at a higher level, how do you know that his reasons for being a deist were not better than your reasons for being a whatever-you-happen-to-be?
It seems to me that there might be an element of bias to your religious (or non-religious) views for such a comment to be tossed out so casually.
I'm not stating with certainty that there *is* bias (I have not read much of your blog), but it seems to be an area that could benefit from further elaboration.
