In this chain, what is the probability that just one of the links is a god, that had the intention of continuing the chain of events?
Using your domino theory, none. The only significant event was the tipping of the first domino. All the rest fell in reaction to the actions of the domino before it in line. It is not volitional. The only cause for each subsequent falling domino is the fact that the one before it fell. So unless a god caused the first domino to fall, there is no need to suppose any godly action in tipping any of the rest of them.
