"Je suis contre la religion parce qu'elle nous apprend à être satisfaits de ne pas comprendre le monde."

Richard Dawkins

Simplified Meaning:

Some people feel that religion stops them from asking questions about how things really work. They believe that instead of finding out real answers about the world, religion tells them to just accept things as they are. For example, if someone wonders why it rains, instead of learning about weather and science, they might just say it's because a god wants it that way. This way of thinking can keep people from discovering and learning new things. Instead of being curious and exploring, they might just stick to what they are told. People who think like this want to encourage everyone to always question and seek to understand the true reasons behind everything, rather than just accepting simple explanations.
