Quote:Indeed, the earth is an infinitesimal spec in this universe amongst many, but I disagree that everything else is "completely random."
Complete randomness in nature is not only unproven, but is also impossible at the smallest scales.
This is false. Evolution itself works with random variation. If lets say weather changed so dramatically that there was snow on the ground for most of the year, of course over very long periods of time. If a mutation was to occur that caused white fur to develop, such white squirrels would likely then survive. The chances that these squirrels get to survive would be threw a random mutation.
I understand your a theist, and you might reject the notion of evolution, but what you stated is not a fact and there is plenty of evidence to support randomness in nature. Your claim that it is all order is at most a reach to build an argument backwards to support what you would like to believe as your conclusion.
Back to the example if these randomness didn't happen that population of squirrels may have another mutation they pass on that helps them, or die off. Whether they live or die is randomness, just like the extinction of many other species.
