The modern variety of Scientists say that things arise by pure random chance; but if they arrive by random chance, they should depart by random chance as well. But they don’t. Looking at it from an imagined period of geological time doesn’t in any way change these facts, nor add anything to the circumstances since change only happens now.

The salient character of all that is manifest in this world is the coherent continuity of its presence. Coherent with what? With the intelligible saeculum of each manifested form of being — the ontogenetic potential that is present in each moment over a potential lifespan — accidents or living like a rockstar notwithstanding.

Modern Scientists study clumps of matter and infer from their studies that all forms of being are similar in how they behave. But this is absurd. Clumps of matter do not have saecula.
