Selection is as deliberate and as non-accidental as anything can be.

Selection is a verb. Someone or something makes the selection. That's how I understand it. if it isn't someone, then something has to do it. What is that something ?

The environment makes the selection.

Did any of you CRIDers pass science in High School? I don't debate deep theology, since I am not that familiar with it. Why do you CRIDers persist in debating Natural Science when you don't bother to learn it?

LOL! Clearly you failed grammar. "Selection" is a noun. "Select" is a verb.

Correct. Selection can be performed by the environment (hairless polar bears freeze), by the opposite sex (ugly polar bears don't get to make little polar bears), etc.
