Is randomness necessarily disordered? Randomness is more than disordered. Chaos can be disordered and unpredictable but chaos may be deterministic. Randomness means that at the small level cause and effect are not connected. This is not your Newtonian universe, the future is not only beyond our comprehension, but is not even directly connected to the past. If apparent randomness is just a manifestation of extra dimensions or forces that we do not directly experience then it only adds to the level of things which had to be pre-ordained. If we don't have free will then it is as likely that God doesn't either. TP
