Richard dawkins sayings

Here are some famous quotes by Richard Dawkins:

1. "The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference."

2. "Science is the poetry of reality."

3. "Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence."

4. "We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further."

5. "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."

6. "Science replaces private prejudice with publicly verifiable evidence."

7. "It is absolutely safe to say that if you meet somebody who claims not to believe in evolution, that person is ignorant, stupid or insane (or wicked, but I'd rather not consider that)."

8. "The feeling of awed wonder that science can give us is one of the highest experiences of which the human psyche is capable."

9. "The meme for blind faith secures its own perpetuation by the simple unconscious expedient of discouraging rational inquiry."

10. "We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born."
