Biologist Richard Dawkins concluded in River out of Eden that “The Universe we observe has exactly the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil and no good, nothing but blind pitiless indifference.” Dawkins also knows that the universe has precisely the properties needed for human life–life that is full of purpose, including his own purpose in writing books about purposelessness.
