“Dear Mr. Berkowitz;

My position concerning God is that of an agnostic. I am convinced that a vivid consciousness of the primary importance of moral principles for the betterment and ennoblement of life does not need the idea of a law-giver, especially a law-giver who works on the basis of reward and punishment.

I’m sending you under separate cover two books of mine containing occasional writings where you will find more about this subject.

Sincerely yours, 

Albert Einstein.” by xy
