More likely due to social pressure of their times and how they were raised/trained. But sure ! lol
This quote is a perfect example of how much an idiot you are. If you ever read any of their works, which you blatantly obviously haven't, you would realize it had absolutely zero to do with "social pressures" of "their times".

The most beautiful system of the Sun, Planets and Comets could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent being. All variety of created objects which represent order and Life in the Universe could happen only by the willful reasoning of its original Creator, whom I call the Lord God.

Atheism is so senseless and odious to mankind that it never had many professors.
Quote:
He who thinks half-heartedly will not believe in God; but he who really thinks has to believe in God.
Words straight from the greatest scientist to ever live and probably one of the smartest people in general to ever live. But ya just an idiot conforming to the social pressures of his time, right? I mean he was such a conformist, obviously, that's why he was practically a direct enemy of the church and had a lot of enemies, because he was such a conformist. Yep, totally obvious!

Read a mother fucking book you god damn waste of life.

o ok so newton denied his parents' religion and his country's church, but social pressure and the way he was raised forced him to believe in a conception of religion that nobody in his family believed and that was heretical by his society's standards

THANKS ALARTI

Most social pressure is from peers not parents. See the catholic schoolgirl stereotype and need to rebel.
Societal pressure easier for you to understand?

He was trying to make sense of things he didnt understand within limits he already understood. Not that shocking actually.

Newton, Einstein, Bill Nye; genius is susceptible to self-idolatry.

The ultimate narcissistic act is to observe this singular moment on an infinite timeline -- this blip which encapsulates the aggregate of all man's hard-won knowledge and tireless speculation -- and yet conclude one is qualified to invent God.

The scientific method goes largely wasted because you morans believe everything you read.

If Dawkins said apes evolved from kangaroos because they both have a tailbone, youd believe him

No thats dogma. Only religious people believe everything they read in some stupid book. Believe me, not everything Dawkins says is gospel.

Sam Harris on the other hand...
