A handwritten letter by Albert Einstein in which he calls religion “childish” is to be sold at auction, with a starting price of £1.85million. The Noble Prize-winning scientist questions the existence of God in a letter penned to philosopher Eric Gutkind in 1954. 

In the private letter, which was a response to Gutkind’s book “Choose Life: The Biblical Call to Revol”, the genius says the word God is “nothing more than the expression of human weaknesses”. The agnostic Jew goes on to say the Bible is a “collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish.” 

He goes on to say: “For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are also no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything ‘chosen’ about them”
