To kill an error is as good a service as, and sometimes even better than, the establishing of a new truth or fact.Charles Darwin
When Brexiters told the public that people were exaggerating, that there would be a financial meltdown, I think it's been proven that they were not exaggerating.Richard Branson
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
To an honest judge, the alleged marriage between religion and science is a shallow, empty, spin-doctored sham.Richard Dawkins
We've all been brought up with the view that religion has some kind of special privileged status. You're not allowed to criticise it.Richard Dawkins
Religion is about turning untested belief into unshakable truth through the power of institutions and the passage of time.Richard Dawkins
Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself, the engineer, is explained by natural selection.Richard Dawkins
One of the things that is wrong with religion is that it teaches us to be satisfied with answers which are not really answers at all.Richard Dawkins
If children understand that beliefs should be substantiated with evidence, as opposed to tradition, authority, revelation or faith, they will automatically work out for themselves that they are atheists.Richard Dawkins
