I agree. It always seems that theists get hung up on "chance" for reasons that I don't understand. If God wants to create a mechanism that works by chance, are the theists claiming he can't? I thought he was omnipotent?

Furthermore, I don't understand at all how a mechanism that works by chance violates God's omniscience, the other thing they get hung up on. Just because God knows the outcome beforehand, doesn't mean the outcome wasn't determined by chance, according to rules He created.

It seems to me that NotReady doesn't give his God very much credit.
