Is atheism a scientific perspective?

[Astreja]

Evolution relies on chance events from the remote past.

Not entirely accurate.  Evolution is not like shuffling a deck of playing cards or rolling dice.  It's more like a comparison sort wherein the results of each generation affects the degree of randomness in the next one, with failures falling away over time.

As the Miller-Urey experiment demonstrated in the 1950s, it is possible for complex organic molecules to form in a relatively short time.  Now extend that process over billions of years, with a bias towards complex structures gradually forming.

I fully expect to see DNA synthesis in a laboratory setting in this lifetime, sooner rather than later.
