#1,077: Einstein Was Right About More than Quantum Physics

May 04, 2026 / Kurt F. Stone

Back on April 15, NACHO (a new nickname meaning “Not a Chance Hormuz Opens,”) sunk about as low as any POTUS has ever done: he blasted Pope Leo, accusing him of “liking crime.” This frontal assault got headlines around the globe. A little more than 2 weeks later, the Holy Father responded by appointing 3 bishops critical of POTUS. Not surprisingly, the pope’s political riposte also garnered headlines from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe.

Strangely, an embroglio that should have made headlines was, in the words of Grandpa Doc, “. . . buried beneath the truss ads on page 39.” The issue at hand was an executive order IT had issued just weeks after he returned to office. His order called for a task force within his newly refashioned DOJ to investigate and pursue what his press office called the Biden Justice Department's “aggressive prosecutions” against Christian demonstrators at clinics where abortions were performed but responded “less aggressively” to attacks on Christian pregnancy resource centers (i.e. places that dissuade women from having abortions).

Recently, the White House issued a 200-plus page report about NACHO’s contention. In addition to the matter of the “aggressive prosecutions” of Christians at abortion clinics, the report accused the previous administration of imposing disproportionately heavy fines on several Christian Universities, including Liberty and Grand Canyon, which the Department of Education under Biden - so the recent report stated - had accused of functioning as nothing more than diploma mills. The report further compared this charge with the lower fines against Penn State and Michigan State for cases of sexual. abuse. Unlike last month’s back-and-forth between the White House and Pope Leo, this week’s Biden-Anti-Christian-bias report received far, far less coverage. One of the few places it could be seen, heard or read was, not surprisingly, on Fox; Their headline ran, DOJ alleges ‘systematic culture’ of anti-Christian bias across federal agencies under Biden.

In the Regime’s report, the term “traditional Christian” is used over and over as it discusses the great need of defending White Christian beliefs. Many of the concerns in this report - abortion, vaccines, LGBTQ rights - are the concerns of conservative white evangelicals who are an important base of support for NACHO. The report also describes White American Christians as being a persecuted minority.

How’s that? Since when are Christians a minority . . . and a persecuted one at that? According to the United States Census website, as I write this sentence, there are 342,473,537 people in the United States. According to the Jewish Agency for Israel, the global population of Jews - whether traditional, secular or merely cultural - of which about 7,200,000 live in Israel, and 6.3 million live in the United States. And although I did not major in math, I can easily determine that 6.3 million represents less than 2% (1.18% to be precise) of the American population. How’s that for a tiny minority! And yet, to listen to many MAGAites, there must be at least 35-4million Jewish people in the United States; enough to control Hollywood, the media in general, medicine and all those universities that push the teaching of DEI and all other Marxist corspiracies. And then there are the Muslims. According to the most recent census statistics, there are approximately nearly 4.5 million Muslims in America. This works out to just a little over 1.3% of the U.S. population. And yet, there are any number of prominent Republican politicians – including Speaker Mike Johnson and Texas Senator John Cornyn – who continue sounding the alarm on what they call a growing Sharia law threat in the U.S. Just last February, the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government held hearings on the incompatibility of Muslim Sharia and American Constitutional law . . . as if it were a major issue to be concerned with. Hey, in the race for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in Minnesota, former “My Pillow” exec Mike Lindell has vowed that if elected, he will take on satanic statues immediately and will ban Sharia Law on day one. Well, it does serve to distract a percentage of the public away from the Epstein Files saga.

By comparison, according to Pew Research, as of 2024, 62% of U.S. adults identify as Christians (which includes Catholics, all branches of both traditional and primitive Protestantism, Lutheranism, and Pete Hegseth’s Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC) According to the Pew poll the 62% figure represents a decline of 9 percentage points since 2014, and a 16-point drop since 2007. The report ordered up by the Regime at the very beginning of the second go-round essentially serves as a sop to so-called “traditional Christians.” Over and again, the report uses this term in discussing many concerns, such as abortion, vaccines, LGBTQ rights . . . which are precisely the concerns of conservative white evangelicals, who happen to be an important base for NACHO and his Regime.

One need look no further the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, who is a loud and proud member of CREC – the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches, which is often associated with both Christian Nationalism and what is called “Federal Vision” theology. In addition to their anti-Democratic notions about allowing only 1 vote per household, keeping women out of both the military and the workforce, and working for a post-millennial world, those belonging to CREC churches (there are currently more than 160 of them in the United States) or are self-proclaimed Christian Nationalists or hold to Federal Vision theological principles, truly believe that they are a dangerously persecuted minority.

If you want to know from a member of a religious minority what persecution feels like, just talk to a Jew. Acts of lethal anti-Semitic violence are on the rise in the USA, UK and Australia. It should come as no surprise that even with the war in Iran, an overwhelming percentage of American Jews do not support the Regime. They/we find a haunting, mostly deceptive, under-façade of anti-Semitism beneath all the grammar school-level rhetoric. Our antennae are attuned to both the evil and the silence. We know far better than most that anti-Semitism is, in addition to being the world’s oldest prejudice, the equivalent of ‘moral pornography.’

And here we ask Prof. Einstein to enter the conversation. For as brilliant as he was in the fields of relativity and Quantum Physics, he was equally astute in understanding both politics and the human psyche. For it was Einstein - in one of his most trenchant and understandable moments - taught:

“The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil,
but by those who watch them without doing anything.”
