HELP THIS IS IMPORTANT What do you think the author is saying about trying to beat the odds in the monkeys paw?

The author V. V. Jacobs wanted to maintain the possibility that the wishes made with the monkey's paw could have all been granted as the result of mere coincidence. "Morris said the things happened so naturally," said' his father, "that you might if you so wished attribute it to coincidence."
