Summary/Abstract: The research of religious experience of great minds since ever represents demanded, but yet provocative and controversial enterprise. And when that research is focused on one of the most renowned physicists of the twentieth century, which could also mean of all times, Albert Einstein (1879–1955), than the subject obtains in weight, but no doubt also in attractiveness. This fact is due to the pure evidence of Einstein’s very often mentions of religion and God in his scientific and popular writings. Maybe often mentions of Einstein’s personal views of religion and God are far more significant in his private letters and various public meetings with people. For example, Max Jammer, a philosopher, physicist, and former Rector of the Bar-Ilan University of Jerusalem in Israel, illuminating meticulously Einstein’s intimate, e.g. personal, and professional, e.g. scientific, relation to religion, affirms that his physical cognitions and his understanding of religion are profoundly bound.
