Tillich and the Courage to Be: Spinoza

A few years ago, my son introduced me to Paul Tillich.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Tillich.  From the wikipedia article, 

"...he developed his 'method of correlation': an approach of exploring the symbols of Christian revelation as answers to the problems of human existence raised by contemporary existential philosophical analysis."

Here's an interesting blog I just ran into with a good entry about Tillich...

Here's an excerpt...

In a famous response to a Rabbi's inquiry about whether he believed in God, Einstein wrote: I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings. In my teens, let's just say "if it was good enough for Einstein…" Of course in later life hero worship wanes buts formative interests developed by them doesn't necessarily.
