How do you even marry the worlds smartest man knowing your going to lose every argument must be frustrating.

Albert Einstein was like a ''Jesus Christ'' of 20th century...a God among us,,,speaking words of wisdom and peace...also a brilliant scientist,,,such a rare human being,,,,a great Soul has traveled this World in hope that he can change Us to become better

I think it's a rather bold claim to say you see the world how it is. Everyone see's the world differently due to multiple complex factors. So it would be hard for anyone to claim they see it 'how it really is'.

I don't deny that the world is full of shocking actions which i can't understand doing myself. A lot of greedy people too. But i choose to believe there is more caring people than uncaring people in this world. It would be pretentious of me to say i'm caring and hardly else seems to be.

(A)You probably want to say that I am realist because (unfortunately), I see the world as it is and not as it should be. You don’t know,what it means to 400.000 expelled Serbs by Croat Nazis from their home land in Croatia?It was in XXI century in Europe! Or over 40 brutally killed and slaughtered Tesla’s cousin in Croatia? Or 250.000 expelled Serbs from their home land in Kosovo and Metohia?Yes,in XXI century in our world there is the Nazism and genocide as government policy!These are the facts

(B) It is not pessimism, it’s objectivism! What about shameless profits, about not real but shameless “ecology”, about not real but shameless “democracy”, “human rights”, “transparency” and other government tools for enslaving and looting others (Iraq, Libya, Syria, again Iran)? It is not Tesla’s world but a real world we live in. Of course, I am glad to see in your wish the better side of the world and from this point of view I wish you lots of family happiness and success in life.

Your replies seem pessimistic about humanity. There have been plenty of honest, caring people before and after Nikola Tesla. Scientists or not. Nikola Tesla's insight into the nature of the universe was astounding, and the amount of discoveries and things he accomplished for humanity was something i'm sure many scientists dream of. I wouldn't treat him like a god though. It's not like his personality and intelligence are untouchable. He gets much respect from me though. Not everyone is greedy.

"(2)Unlike shameless businessmen, or mudlark Edison,or copyists like Einstein and Marconi,Nikola Tesla was cultural and educated European gentleman,who was ashamed of cheating or stealing.Unfortunately he was too proud and vulnerable person to overcome disappointments from the world in which he lived.As many informed people I honestly feel and believe that Tesla was the first real,tangible, everyday and touchable god in human history.He was and he is next to us,but we did not and do not see him

[Bojan Kosturica]

"(3)Einstain was a good scientist but,unlike Tesla,he was not great mind, engineer,idealist or perfectionist.Like Edison Einstein was a selfish who know to use and exploits others and their work.Without Serbia’s Mileva Maric and her E=mc2 or Rudjer Boskovic and his work about relativity I doubt that the world will know Einstein.Tesla did not know,nor did he want to do that.He was too great dreamer and egoist who wanted to be a modern Zeus Thunderer or our good God with the lightning in his hand"

[Bojan Kosturica]

"(4)It is disappointing that in 2013 there are very few scientists who understand and support Tesla’s way of thinking and working. I watched a few movies about Tesla, I saw also the comments of many scientists but NON OF THEM TALK ABOUT TESLA. They tell a selfish story and present predatory style of life,the same one that told the businessmen and clergy hungry for power and money.They are not talking about people who themselves and human civilization are felt as a REALY part of the Universe"

[EvergladeMusic]

I think Tesla, like Einstein, was an extraordinary man.

[Bojan Kosturica]

What you think about Nikola Tesla,?

[Bojan Kosturica]

What you think about Mileva Maric and her E=mc2, or Rudjer Boskovic and his work about Theory of relativity or Nikola Tesla, and his point of view "How I see the World'?
