"But it looks as though, we agree that there is evidence of intent and that it is an unseen aspect of our humanity."

Yes, human minds can calculate and formulate. And human dsire has been recognized for thousands of years. Desire pursued by mind equals intent...

"It is a matter of written history that dangers, difficulties, and conflicts with corruption present themselves throughout our story"

Yes, life is dangerous.

"Such things have been foretold in religious scripture as well."

People have forever expressed their fears and forebodings of the future. Nobody knows the future because it has not happened.

"It should be obvious that nothing comes to the poltroon and the skeptic idler"

Don't be naive. A person born rich can idle all he wants. Everything he desires will come to him.

"Responsibility always involves intent and action toward and about your circumstance."

One can be responsible for the unintended. You are thinking of accountability.
