"chance" as a cause. With random as "hard to predict" within a given set of "restraints".-a reasonable conclusion, but not only one: a living universe. 
As defined by reasonable uses of the words involved.-there ya have it again. What is nice for me is that I do not believe in this "monism religion", yet it still leads to the same conclusion as mine. There will be the 10% to 20% unreasonable. But all within those limits should be proven "not reasonable". This monism is great stuff when needed.
