Let me give a concrete example of "apparent" order. ( I like the concrete... I regard philosophy as a crock.)
We have, on occasion, had theists show up touting how beautiful the universe is and how everything operates like clockwork. So why, then,

look like this? Earth itself is hypothesized to have suffered through the Late Heavy Bombardment which far predates life on the planet. It would seem that what we see as "order" today actually began with chaos. The universe has had billions of years to settle down.
