Question
What is more reasonable to say: that God plays dice, or that He doesn't?
Answer
Most likely He plays five-a-side soccer.
Haha, and what position does He play on the team!? What I mean to ask is whether it's more reasonable that He is a monotheistic God or not? [A providential God, with a white beard, glasses, and tobacco, who cares what you do and who you're with.]
I'm one of those who took the phrase out of the familiar context Einstein planted it in. Until not long ago, in my innocence, I thought that was what it meant. I'm less professional in these formal discussions, but I'm trying to stay afloat.
