Quantum mechanics is a pretty fancy way of saying "random bits of matter that accidentally came together". Does the randomness of the mechanism of atomic formation mean that the universe was an accident? I don't think so.

Does the randomness in the mechanism of evolutionary change mean that life is an accident? I don't think so.

I'd be curious to hear what the Scientific community here thinks about things like the Golden Mean and Mandelbrot sets. Reoccurring patterns throughout nature.

So you say. :) I don't think we are a product of randomness, we aren't the mere result of a series of lucky rolls of the dice. There is, I believe, something greater than man, and that "something" isn't 'chance'.
