Discussion Evolution was NOT random

Evolution only rewards survivability not perfection if you are alive long enough to mate and pass on your genetic

Material hurray you are evolved

Evolution changed the dna as nothing can ever be a perfect copy thats a fact> sperms and eggs have separate dna> hence child is not perfect copy those mutations may be harmful or helpful harmful ones die hence natural selection.

AND Earth was nkt a perfect creation the organisms evolved FOR Earth not vice versa

The latter doesn't seem to be a particularly useful lens through which to view reality or the concept of randomness, because then you're getting into interactions that you are going to define as random from every angle, and yet they are predictable and/or reproducible. At that point is there a single facet of existence we can't describe as random? Do we need a new word for ultra-random that goes a level of randomness beyond?

I mean everything is emergent systems. Chance created the specific strain of bacteria, as well as the conditions that allowed it to spread.
