Yeah, but we haven't proven order yet either. :-)

Order exists all around us.

Maybe around you, but I have a wife, two daughters, and four female grandchildren.

that would suggest you live in a world devoid of reason ... which is not the same as order :-P but it's reasonable to assume that it's a fairly chaotic place :-)

I don't know much about women... Only married to one, but My Son certainly throws me into chaos at times (Daddy, what does this button do? *Computer shuts off because he found the power strip...)

while we're on the subject of order, I'll have a no. 12, a no. 45 and 2 no.97's please omg this is so off topic it's liable to come full circle - actually circles seem pretty damned orderly ... which just leaves the question as to whether circles exist or that we merely projection them onto reality, which is great because that question cannot be objectively answered unless your the "one true god"(tm) - who probably doesn't give a hoot anyway.

Everything is in place because the Master Machine put it there in what seems a random order but when we die and the aliens take us back to the mother ship we will realize that nothing was ever random... except for the fact that we exist... Personally I think we were a genetic mistake by the aliens who were trying to perfect cow cloning and oops... we created humans :P *Puts on his tinfoil hat and sits in the corner with his light saber (8 foot fluorescent light bulb filled with gasoline and lit on fire to get the cool effects) and waits for the aliens return...

I only need to look around me to see the order that exists. A desk

Not my desk. I've heard that order exist, and when I close my eyes, I can imagine it. Ah there, that's where I find it -- in my head and that's my point*. :-) . Happy Holidays,

Merry Xmas (just to be polically incorrect about it ;-)

tedd * You know, "the point" -- what we were talking about, not a point on the top of my head. :-)
