If lightning strikes beach sand, and eons of wind shape those glass and mineral bits into a working computer by pure chance, would you trust it to give you the same, correct answer every time you run a physics math problem?

Question

Isn’t that where people say our minds come from?
Are we are all just the product of random, irrational chance.

If that’s the case, then how can we trust ourselves to say anything is true? That’s a paradox where if we believe we are the product of irrational, random chance, then we can’t expect our brain to be rational and believe one thing more rational than another.

Unless our minds are not the product of random chance, but rather an intelligent designer.

Thank you for reading.
This is not my argument, but Darwin’s himself, in fact, Charles Darwin clarified his theory proves the origin of new species, but not the origin of life.
