I think "randomness" is just a euphemism for "goddammit can't predict it." Since we are limited in the dimensions which we can observe and in which we can interact, we cannot know if the arrangement of properties in another dimension lies behind apparent randomness.

There's an unwritten rule in science that I disagree with: that all mysteries can one day be revealed through scientific progression. I don't think there's any rational reason to believe this to be the case. In fact, we can already see this not to be the case.
