"宇宙不在乎你相信什么。你无法拯救自己;拯救是你对自己犯过的错误所做的事情。"

Richard Dawkins

Simplified Meaning:

The universe runs on its own set of rules and doesn’t change based on what people believe. For example, whether you believe in gravity or not, if you jump off a chair, you will still fall to the ground. This idea is saying that your beliefs don’t affect the natural laws or facts of the world. On a personal level, it’s important to understand that feeling bad about mistakes or hoping for forgiveness isn't enough. Instead of just regretting a wrong action, what truly matters is making things right. For instance, if you hurt a friend by saying something mean, you can’t just wish for everything to be okay. You need to apologize and show through your actions that you care and want to improve the situation. This shows that true redemption involves actively working to fix the mistakes you’ve made, rather than just acknowledging them.
