Richard Dawkins

This quote was added by kcall855
After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn't it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it?

"hundred million centuries"- Yeah, as if anybody ever witnesses that. For all we know, we could be 1000 years old, for we know science has proved fallible countless times in the past. This is not a theist comment, I am just pointing out the blatant arrogance of the human mind, as if we knew everything.
