How does order come from randomness Well, first of all you aren't telling the whole story. Order does not spring from randomness alone. The first requirement is reproduction. The item which is to become more ordered must be able to copy itself, more or less faithfully (Otherwise nothing arises from randomness but more randomness). With reproduction things get less random and more a group of copies. Reproduction invariably leads to selection as the raw materials for reproduction become scarce and suddenly not every copy is equal, some make better use of the materials at hand than others. TP - repeat until desired doneness.
