  1. Christians taking quotes out of context and pretending to be concerned with evidence.

    we-are-star-stuff:

    surelyyouwillnotdie:

    “We don’t need evidence. We know it to be true.” — Richard Dawkins on human evolution.

    Learn how to properly source your quotes.

    The original phrase is:

    The evolution of the vertebrate eye must have been progressive. Ancient ancestors had a very simple eye, containing only a few features good for seeing. We don’t need evidence for this (although it is nice that it is there). It has to be true because the alternative – an initially complex eye, well-endowed with features good for seeing – pitches us right back to Hoyle country and the sheer cliff of improbability. There must be a ramp of step-by-step progress towards the modern, multifeatured descendant of that optical prototype. [SOURCE]
