I never understood why people think life is an accident in the first place. If life can exist in the harshest of conditions and on other planets not to mention other dimensional planes not limited to the 4 we live in (the 4th being time) then why should it be an accident. Its not difficult to understand how life began using the properties of carbon atoms, hydrogen, oxygen, electricity and amino acids, all stuff born from stars that are abundant in our universe.
There are NO accidents in the universe and beyond. Only infinite possibilities.
