Definition of random in the Oxford English Dictionairy:
Having no definite aim or purpose; not sent or guided in a particular direction; made, done, occurring, etc., without method or conscious choice; haphazard."
That claim requires hard evidence conciousnous started with a conscious choice.
Also, what we have seen of the universe indicates otherwise. What is the purpose of lifeless planets? Of stars besides our sun? If there is no purpose to them wouldn't that signify their existance as being random? For that matter, what is our purpose?
Anyone who claims the universe is ordered as an arguement for creationism first has to have an indepth knowledge of the *entire* universe. They would then have to explain and prove the purpose of everything that has ever existed in it, including randomness itself as that too would have been created by God in this hypothesis. If randomness existed without God then that would mean it does not require him to exist... so why would anything? If they can't do either of these things then their arguement has no basis on which to continue...
