You might have well have said you see God in every sunrise, in the smile of every baby, in every dog fart...

What is your explanation for the fact that the universe has a rational order?

Does it have rational order, or does reason find meaning in ordered patterns? Last we visited this subject, you said you were of the "opinion," that our ability to pick out patterns in the underlying chaos of the universe is suggestive of a proscriptive order. Just what is that "opinion" based on?

Because it is useful to the survival of our species. That's all that evolution requires for there to be a selective advantage to preserving this feature. But you already know this. So what is the point of your rhetorical question?
