Richard Dawkins

In a universe of blind physical forces and genetic replication, some people are going to get hurt, other people are going to get lucky, and you won´t find a rhyme or reason in it, nor any justice. The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil and no good, nothing but blind pitiless indifference. As the unhappy poet A. E. Housman put it:

"For Nature, heartless, witless Nature Will neither know nor care.

DNA neither knows nor cares. DNA just is. And we dance to its music.

River out of Eden
