As opposed to the tendency of Evolutionists to gaze at the world and simply tell themselves, "Chance must have done this."

Which is not something evolutionists say. Indeed, it is the quest to understand the underlying mechanisms that lead to life-as-we-know-it that was the genesis of the theory of evolution (which has nothing to do with chance, by the way).

One of the most difficult lessons I've had to learn in these threads is that there really are people -- many of them -- who see the OJ jury as role models. When presented with facts, they won't look at them. When they have no choice but to look, they won't see them. When the facts are both visible and impossible to ignore, they won't connect them. When the connections are explained, they reject the explanations.
