Evolutionary biologist William Provine of Cornell
University

• Let me summarize my views on what modern
  evolutionary biology tells us loud and clearand
  these are basically Darwins views. There are no
  gods, no purposes, and no goal-directed forces of
  any kind. There is no life after death. When I
  die, I am absolutely certain that I am going to
  be dead. Thats the end of me. There is not
  ultimate foundation for ethics, no ultimate
  meaning in life, and no free will for humans,
  either. What an unintelligible idea.
