I’ve been a bit skeptical about AI, but lately, I’ve been exploring how it can be used as a creative tool. And I’m pretty sold! I’ve found that it has been a great resource for helping me move through creative blocks. It offers fresh perspectives and can help spark new ideas.
Speaking of fresh perspectives, I recently asked AI to imagine what a conversation between Jesus and Einstein might sound like. It’s something I’ve thought about weirdly often – I’ve had a book idea entitled: “Einstein and Jesus Walk Into a Bar” and that’s as far as I’ve gotten…or maybe they just say ouch and move on.
If I were to answer that imaginary dinner party question, I guess they’d both be on my guest list.
I see Jesus as a spiritual teacher rather than a religious figure. I believe he was a healer who understood how to harness his own energy and was teaching others to do the same. When it comes to understanding energy today, people often use Einstein quote’s like, “Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another,” to suggest that personal energy can be transformed or redirected towards manifesting one’s goals.
Is this a fair comparison? Are Jesus’s teachings and Einstein’s ideas related? I don’t really know. So, I imagined a meeting between Jesus and Einstein to give me some answers.
Enjoy this little robot generated convo below. I thought it was fun.

Einstein: Greetings, Jesus. Your teachings have had a profound impact on the world, though I must confess I have always been more drawn to the mysteries of the physical universe than matters of theology.
Jesus: Peace be with you, Albert. While our paths may seem quite different, I believe there is much common ground between science and spirituality. After all, we both seek truth and aim to understand the deep workings of creation.
Einstein: Indeed, I have always felt a sense of awe and reverence when contemplating the elegant laws of nature – the way everything from the subatomic to the cosmic is bound together in a magnificent cosmic dance. My work has been an attempt to glimpse the mind of God, so to speak.
Jesus: God is certainly present in the marvels of the natural world. As I taught, The kingdom of God is within all things and all people. Science reveals the intricacies of the Creator’s handiwork, but to know God deeply, one must look inward with a pure and open heart.
Einstein: I agree that science alone cannot fully explain the human experience or provide ultimate meaning. As I once said, “Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.” I believe both are needed for a complete understanding.
Jesus: You are very wise, Albert. Indeed, spiritual truths must be experienced directly, beyond the confines of the rational mind. The way to know God is through love – love for the Creator, love for each other, love for creation itself. In this, all shall find wholeness, peace and true fulfillment.
Einstein: Your message of love and compassion is a powerful one. If humanity could truly embrace it, I believe it would unleash tremendous potential for good in this world. Perhaps someday, science and spirituality shall come together, and we will understand both the outer and inner workings of the universe.
Jesus: May it be so. Let us all strive to walk in love, wonder, and humility – both in our earthly discoveries and in our connection to that which lies beyond. In this, we shall find the deepest truths. It has been a pleasure to share with you, Albert. God’s blessings upon you.
Einstein: Thank you, Jesus. Speaking with you has been most enlightening. I feel we have shined a light on the unity behind all existence. Until we meet again, I wish you peace and joy.
