About This Quote
In a letter to a friend, Richard Dawkins said, "Maybe if I had to boil it down to one easy sentence, it would be this: I believe in evolution, and I believe in God. I just haven't worked out the details yet." In his letter, Dawkins was in a quest for peace between science and religion. He was hoping that in the future, religion could be reconciled with science by finding a middle ground that both sides could agree upon.
