I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation,
whose purposes are modelled 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 harbour such thoughts
through fear or ridiculous egotisms. - Albert Einstein
