Richard Dawkins über unser "sonderbares" Universum

Human brains evolved to navigate a narrow 'Middle World' of ordinary sizes and speeds, leaving us blind to the true weirdness of the universe. Everyday intuition fails us when grappling with quantum theory or the vast emptiness inside atoms—solid rocks are mostly empty space, yet feel hard because of our evolutionary perspective. Even the molecules in a glass of water might have passed through ancient creatures, highlighting how probability defies common sense. Our senses and models of reality are shaped not for truth, but for survival.
