I like your choice of words, "organizing themselves by probablistic chance." I wish my desk could get organized by chance, but I'd be willing to bet that if I came back billions of years later it would still be messy.

My bet is it would be dust or a rock maybe, but I can guarantee it would not be a living organism. (you need a sludge pond for that, haven't you heard?) ; * )

I wonder which came first? The pond or the scum?

You should at least study the information available before making bets.
