Editing Wolfgang Pauli (section)

==Beliefs==
He is considered to have been a [[Deism|deist]] and a [[Mysticism|mystic]]. In ''No Time to Be Brief: A Scientific Biography of Wolfgang Pauli'' he is quoted as writing to science historian [[Shmuel Sambursky]], "In opposition to the monotheist religions – but in unison with the mysticism of all peoples, including the Jewish mysticism – I believe that the ultimate reality is not personal."<ref>{{cite book|title=No Time to Be Brief: A Scientific Biography of Wolfgang Pauli|year=2002|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=978-0-19-856479-9|author=Charles Paul Enz|quote=At the same time Pauli writes on 11 October 1957 to the science historian Shmuel Sambursky whom he had met on his trip to Israel (see Ref.

"Einstein's conception is closer to mine. His God is somehow involved in the immutable laws of nature. Einstein has a feeling for the central order of things. He can detect it in the simplicity of natural laws. We may take it that he felt this simplicity very strongly and directly during his discovery of the theory of relativity. Admittedly, this is a far cry from the contents of religion. I don't believe Einstein is tied to any religious tradition, and I rather think the idea of a personal God is entirely foreign to him."}}</ref>
