He did not seem to have any problems with his own theories. But the theory of
relativity may be seen as only an extension of Newtonian physics, whereas
quantum mechanics  undermine the whole idea of a clockwork universe. Someone
please correct me if I'm wrong. How all this is related to religious belief I
cannot say.
