Boy, I guess if you're jealous of someone's accomplishments you can really tear them down to make yourself feel better. Someone above wrote that intelligence wasn't as important as being good. First of all - "Good" is relative! Second of all - think about that statement the next time you use your cell phone, computer, or other myriad technological advances. All were devised by BRILLIANT men, who were flawed in many ways like we all are. By the way - Roosevelt married his cousin too. Einstein was Genius! Not "a genius" - just "genius" His moral "failings" are inconsequential compared to the positive impact he had on the scientific world, and human kind as a whole. Anyone who feels otherwise is unrealistic, and probably has more skeletons in their closet than Einstein ever had.
