Richard Dawkins

Select Richard Dawkins Quotations
I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.
Richard Dawkins

A universe with a God would look quite different from a universe without one. A physics, a biology where there is a God is bound to look different. So the most basic claims of religion are scientific. Religion is a scientific theory.
Richard Dawkins

By all means let's be open-minded, but not so open-minded that our brains drop out.
Richard Dawkins

We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.
Richard Dawkins

Many of us saw religion as harmless nonsense. Beliefs might lack all supporting evidence but, we thought, if people needed a crutch for consolation, where's the harm? September 11th changed all that.
Richard Dawkins

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.
Richard Dawkins
