ping for a look some time.

I do happen to believe we're not random bits of matter that accidentally came together.

But I am willing to listen to the other side. :)

Quantum mechanics is a pretty fancy way of saying "random bits of matter that accidentally came together". Does the randomness of the mechanism of atomic formation mean that the universe was an accident? I don't think so.

Does the randomness in the mechanism of evolutionary change mean that life is an accident? I don't think so.

I agree with you, but the idea that evolution is the accidental combination of random bits of matter is false---that's not what evolution posits.

Ask PatrickHenry to send you a list of reading materials to bring you up to speed on the particulars of evolutionary theory.

You mean your vanity will not permit you to consider the possibility.

Who said it was accidental? The TOE doesn't.
