Is Life only a result of a random sequence of events??

Vitalism vs. Random Processes

 "It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."   ~~Charles Darwin Frequently, "intellectuals" in our culture make meager attempts at supporting reasons as to why we as human beings exist as living entities. One faction dictates that we humans developed and specialized over millions of years through a process that was thought of as "random" series of physical/genetic mutations. In theory, organisms that survived through time were those individuals of the species that experienced random flukes within their genetics, producing characteristics or traits, which allowed them to modify their physical functions and behaviors that gave greater flexibility toward improved survival. Physical oddities and behavioral modifications that promoted greater tolerance to and survive from the effects of the environmental stresses, including outcomes of being part of the natural food chain, allowed the selected organisms to live longer, healthier, and to propagate their individual genetics (including their new creations) to the next generation. The offspring of these organisms typically were also more capable of surviving and passing on their genes to their lineage, extending the life processes of the species overall. This random process of survival became known as Natural Selection. May I offer that by this definition a "random" process essentially happens on its own, and that no intelligence exists to affect or initiate or alter its process? A second major group describes our human existence as not originating from random processes of change that lead to behavioral or physical modifications that incrementally produced the present state of human existence, but rather we as entities exist because we  are created by an all- powerful, all-knowing, omnipotent being called God. Our physical appearances and body functions are the process of being created by God and have little or no influences from our Earth-bound physical plane. In this proposal, upon which religions are based, we as living beings are separate from and have little or no connection to our God source. Thus, we attend churches or other centers of prayer to be served with guidance by spiritual leaders on how to reach and connect to God. Each of these groups (one based upon "science" and its "Method", and the other basing its arguments upon religious writings) include purists that have become extremely dogmatic about each position, to the point of extreme intolerance to any other possible concepts or ideas. Charles Darwin's quote, as written above, stated that an organism's ability to survive was based upon its level of flexibility and responsiveness to environmental change. Does this description necessarily exclude the possibility of an underlying Intelligence having an effect on the forces behind the "randomization" of the Natural Selection processes?? Would not this concept fit nicely into the science and philosophy of chiropractic and its ideology that a functional and healthy nervous system is necessary for proper health and body function?  May I offer another perspective of Life in which our existence and purpose are a result of the presence of a Higher Intelligence, possessing Laws that work in conjunction with and producing the necessity and opportunity for change? May I also mention that randomization of changes within an organism's genetics is not sufficient to create the potential needed for its own survival and for that of the species overall?   In other words, even "randomness" in change must have some form of  intelligence to occur. Nothing in our Universe, either physical or energetic, occurs without fitting into Quantum  laws of the Universe. The term "laws" connotes the presence of an intelligence. An organism's gene pool does not create the Life Force within an organism, but rather it only supports it. The genes of an organism are present to produce specific proteins to form the cells and tissues within a body, which will support the mental/electrical/electromagnetic functions of the body. When this electrical potential is depressed or lost, the organism becomes challenged and “ill” and ultimately dies, leaving the pre-existing tissues (and genes) to deteriorate. I find it difficult to imagine that the extreme complexities of these creative specialized processes are a result of "random", non-orchestrated phenomena, but rather, they result secondary to Laws of Nature and the Universe. Force within our physical entity connects to a Higher Universal Intelligence and resides within our Soul or Spirit, which is our personal part of the Universal energy field. This Intelligence is based upon Quantum laws of the Universe and is not a result of random chance. Our body energetics can not be separated from that of the Universe, but must work in unison with it, and this Intelligence, which monitors and regulates all functions of our bodies, can not be separated from that which runs the Universe as a whole.                JBC
