Think and express your thoughts, but if they are contradicted do not feel defensive. Everybody is allowed to express his/her opinion, even when it opposes ours.
INSTEAD: LEARN from that opinion. It will make you grow and think smarter.

Yes, because us, the free thinkers, question everything and worship nothing. Always, accumulation of ideas and thoughts. Wonderful world in my mind!

This is one of my favorite comparison images of free thinkers from a religious fanatics. And so true!

Thinking requires the utilization of the brain in a coherent manner, scientifically if possible, but everyone can do this, in philosophy, art, sports, gardening, carpentry, in every profession and activity we practice.

“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.” So said Albert Einstein, and his famous aphorism has been the source of endless debate between believers and non-believers wanting to claim the greatest scientist of the 20th century as their own.

I am so glad you mention Einstein’s quotation that was totally taken out of context. This aphorism was misused using his essay “Science and religion,” published in 1954.
The believers SHOULD not assume that Einstein’s words try to harmonize science and religion.
Gould’s views in his 1999 book Rocks of Ages: Stephen Jay Gould’s version of NOMA (Non-overlapping Magisteria).
There is a lot more to learn about what I am talking about using this link:

Could the writers also maybe be out of context in their own own way? And there’s a lot to learn without worldview and politics.

Absolutely! I love your comment. I go as far as saying that Einstein was not infalible and he was a remarkable scientist but he was not an expert in philosophy.

Thank you…neither are many of the philosophers I fear!
Einstein screwed over his first wife, who was Serbian. She was a Mathematician and was the sounding board for many of his ideas. She wrote many of his early papers because Einstein was not the best writer or teacher. Einstein did not give any real recognition to her. He also basically abandoned his children and then married a first cousin.
He attended Catholic school in Munch till 12 and dropped out of High School at 16. He also failed a college entrance Exam on his first try.
Thank God he was fallible and not an expert on many things.
Information is not knowledge
experience is knowledge…
