Anyone who believes in God thinks God knows the outcome. We have Free will, but God knows the future. Gambling and mutation is random, but God knows the outcome.
For myself I do not suppose that when God commanded the Oceans the bring forth life that God was limited to supernatural means to accomplish this task. And if some scientist someday shows the formation of primitive life from unliving precursors it will do nothing but increase my awe at the intricacies of this amazing creation granted to us by God.
Thanks for keeping it civil as well.
Saying “God directed random mutation” in Science would be as ridiculous as a book giving advice on gambling telling you “God wants you to draw on this inside straight”.
>>>>>WHY? If God isn’t confined to science as we understand it AND understanding the human mind is as limited as it is...
I can’t see how that’s any different than say...a big bang, and life formed under just exactly perfect conditions and out of pri-mordial soup life began and eventually over ga-jillions of years....from salamanders to apes WE finally got us, with no purpose whatsoever.
