Quote:
(Biological evolution) is random. Based on the prevailing scientific theories, life is due to a random combination of chemicals mixing in proper proportion to produce amino acids, DNA, complex cellular structure, etc. It is random because according to theory, these mixtures are pure accident brought about by favorable environmental factors (water availabilty, solar radiation levels, availabilty of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon in the correct proportional amounts, etc.) without any kind of outside interference guiding their interaction.

Factually incorrect.
Evolution by natural selection is
absolutely not random.
Genetic mutations are random and determined by (amongst other causes) the things you mention, but genetic mutation and evolution are not the same thing. It's a very common mistake to conflate the two.
