[size=4][font=arial, verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans][color=#000000]"...The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change this," wrote Einstein, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.[/color][/font][/size]
[color=#000000][font=arial, verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans][size=3][size=4]The letter has been stored in a temperature-controlled vault since it was last sold for $404,000 (Rs 2.09 crore).[/size][/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=arial, verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans][size=3][size=4]The buyer at the time is now selling it with the original envelope, stamp and postmark on eBay.[/size][/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=arial, verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans][size=3][size=4]Eric Gazin, president of Los Angeles-based Auction Cause, which will handle the sale on eBay, said the letter could fetch as much as triple the opening bid threshold.[/size][/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=arial, verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans][size=3][size=4]"Few people have had access to the thoughts and uncensored opinions of this brilliant mind as it relates to his personal views on God and religion," Gazin said.[/size][/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=arial, verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans][size=3][size=4]Einstein experts believe the letter supports the argument that the physicist held complex, agnostic views on religion. He rejected organised faith but often spoke of a spiritual force at work in the universe.[/size][/size][/font][/color]
