About this Quote

This quote by Richard Dawkins suggests that deep space we observe is a result of random possibility as well as not of any type of divine design. He suggests that there is no function or meaning to the universe, which it is just a product of blind, indifferent forces. This recommends that there is no excellent or bad, no moral or immoral, and that the universe is just a result of arbitrary chance. This implies that deep space is not directed by any kind of higher power, and that it is merely an item of arbitrary chance. This quote recommends that the universe is a product of random opportunity and also not of any divine design, and that it is merely a product of blind, indifferent forces. This indicates that the universe is not guided by any higher power, and that it is merely an item of random chance.
