Richard Dawkins Theory Quotations

Today the theory of evolution is about as much open to doubt as the theory that the earth goes round the sun.

The theory of evolution by cumulative natural selection is the only theory we know of that is in principle capable of explaining the existence of organized complexity.

I am an enthusiastic Darwinian, but I think Darwinism is too big a theory to be confined to the narrow context of the gene.

The Darwinian theory is in principle capable of explaining life. No other theory that has ever been suggested is in principle capable of explaining life.

It is grindingly, creakingly, crashingly obvious that if Darwinism was really a theory of chance, it could not work.

Even if it were true that evolution, or the teaching of evolution, encouraged immorality that would not imply that the theory of evolution was false.
