◈ Abstract : 
• In 1919 when Einstein addressed “Religion of fear>Moral God>Cosmic God”, nobody was openly against.
• In 1926 he said, “QM is certainly imposing. But an inner voice tells me that it is not yet the real thing… He is not playing at dice[cf. Unification issue]”, many scientists    were against. That is the first issue and NOW some are working on it.
• In 1930 when Einstein RE-addressed “Religion of fear>Moral God>Cosmic God”, many Christians in USA were openly against.
• In 1939 he said, “Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.” Also said, “Science not only purifies the religious impulse of the dross of its anthropomorphism but also contributes to a religious spiritualization of our understanding of life.” This is the second issue emerging in 21st C. • “It is clear to me that [this] religious paradise of youth was a first attempt to liberate myself from the “only personal”: This urge stayed with him all his life.
