Are you saying then that the genetic variations that allow for adaptation, combined with the environment that forces the adaptation are not from blind chance?

Mutations are random. But natural selection -- which favors and promotes certain genes -- is inherently non-random. Rabbits don't get faster because of dumb luck. They get faster because slower rabbits get eaten and don't survive to reproduce.
