How could you prove it is random? Give me an example of something you
can put into disorder that doesn't use the premise of order? For
instance throwing a handful of sand into the air is expected to obey the
establish laws of physics. These laws of physics suggest order in the
universe even when we perceive disorder.

Yes, but now we're getting back to artificial rules of the mind. We perceive the laws of physics to work a certain way because we have established rules as to how they should work. But, what happens when they don't work? Then we change the rules. We are now at string theory and things still remain disordered. All our efforts to put order to things still fall short.

Also, when we do change our rules, nature hasn't changed. Nature hasn't suddenly changed to our view, but rather we change our thinking to adapt to observation. And it's in those terms of observation that order and disorder of things comes about and not in nature.

Cheers,
