I think of the universe as an amazingly complex seed, created, and planted by God, with the full knowledge of where every branch would be, where every leaf would form, and what every flower would look like. Think of the rules which govern the universe as a DNA sequence that He created, with full knowledge of how it would guide the formation of every detail in the world, including mankind.

You’re viewing chance as chance, and out of God’s control, when He created chance, itself, as an inherent part of the universe, and therefore knows how the dice will fall, before they do, everytime.

From God’s perspective, there is no such thing as chance. I also believe that there is no such thing as chance. We as humans have free will, but every permutation has been predetermined by my omniscient God and He has sought me throughout the folds of time. Were chance any part of any equation, it would not be science. Science deals with observation and should not make speculation, but this is precisely where evolution takes us.
