You don't understand how evolution works (not that the parent you're responding to stated it well). It is most certainly not "random chance".
Frankly I'm surprised to see that kind of sentiment coming out of such a CS-heavy audience, since genetic algorithms demonstrably work, and function on the same mathematical principles minus the biological substrate.
