It's not exactly secretive, but I won't be the one to degrade the temples holy nature."
Plenty of Mormons confuse 'sacred' and 'secret'. That's why I'd rather not talk about it in an open forum.. I don't want to step on peoples toes.

Oh, and Einstein was not religious. At the very most he was a deist..
