"Heh...actually I could give a flying fuck about Einstein the scientist...I enjoy Einstein, the man."

Good luck trying to separate the two, especially in his later years. I
mean of course you can, but Einstein's life and work are so intertwined,
even going back to his young days. Read some of his more recent
biographies if you want a more complete picture of his life, his marriages,
and his children.

Here is a relevant program from PBS Nova that you might like:

"Science means squat if you are not tolerant of people and their beliefs...."

Tolerant, yes, as in people have the right to believe whatever they want.

But this means I also have the right not to get sucked into just any old
idea just because someone declares and buys into it. Science has its
boundaries and methods for a very good reason.
