Why Is Anybody Convinced There Is A God?

You are of course correct, random chance is a terrible word, natural processes I suppose in all the instances you are talking about, and I would say that if an intelligence fits the creation of the universe then technically all those natural processes are the end result of intelligence, but I see the point you are making and i agree.

I think that an intelligence fitting is simply personal preference, my metaphysical model is influenced by the tree of life diagram in jewish philosophy and that is based on emotive forces (strength, love etc), in keeping with that interpreting the universe in an emotional/mental light fits the model.  Again I need to stress this is not a truth claim, but an interpretive choice.
