Evolution is neither guided nor random. Mutations are largely random, but evolution is algorithmic.
Given imperfect replication and differential reproductive success, evolution is certain.
But that does not give evolution a direction or a goal.
I can't make heads or tails of what it is you are trying to say.
I agree that evolution seems like a certainty. And all things that are, are indeed caused by some other thing. Many, such as evolution are subsequently causal as well.
How have you been? Well I hope.[SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
