You do not understand what you're saying here, nor do you understand what chance actually has to do with evolution. As it's very little actually depending on what your definition of 'chance' really is.

Causality plays a very big role in evolution (and the coming into existence of everything actually). It deals with probabilities, but not with 'chance' the way you think. Evolution is not based on some kind of dumb random luck!

The coming into existence of our universe has a non-supernatural cause and the many events after the big bang lead to where we are now. (Deterministic or not, doesn't even matter.) We already know about most of those events in very great detail down to the presumably first couple of seconds of our universe(s?).

Again, evolution isn't accidental. It's not driven by some kind of force like a God being causing progress or guiding it around either, it just works with a few extremely simple rules.

Whatever change caused; whatever works or causes no harm to a species survival in the longer run will (or at least can) survive into later generations. Its why evolution looks like a design, but actually really isn't. It adapts to conditions of the past through selection forces, which could be anything from environmental change to competing with other species in the same space (ie. 'natural selection').

There's a whole ocean load of arguments against a divine creator ( a being that we obviously can not even see or detect ), especially considering the mountain of evidence in favor of evolution out there.

If you really think random dumb luck is the force behind evolution, then I'd encourage you to read Richard Dawkins' The blind watchmaker and enlighten yourself about what evolution is really all about.

Of course religious people tend to reject whatever doesn't suit their ideological needs by definition, but it will rationally explain why your argument has no ground whatsoever in light of the actual scientific theory.
