Chance" explains nothing. It is anti-science

Nonsense. It is the very heart of quantum theory. You know, the funny rules that define the workings of the semiconductors that make up the computer you are using.

Hardly. Punk Eek acknowledges the huge problem for Evolution of the Cambrian Explosion but it explains nothing.
