Abstract
In this presentation, taking inspiration for its title from a famous essay by Jacques Monod, different views on Chance and Necessity of various biologists and influential popularisers of science will be discussed in the context of a current understanding of evolutionary processes, followed by reflection on how this might relate to Biblical views of divine action
