Totally random, it only looks like it has direction because we are here to think it. If the universe had formed with significantly different rules we wouldn't be here to complain about it. True the rules wouldn't have had to be much different but the idea is the same no matter how fine tuned the universe seems from our perspective.

The universe was never been in a state of totally Randomness. Chaos and order have always been in a fluctuating equilibrium with one another.

There is always an inherent seed of order in any system know matter how chaotic it my seem from an observer.

You missed my point T-bird, small fluctuations in order and randomness are not part of the beginning of the universe. What I was saying is the basis of why or why not. The strong anthromorphic principle and the weak anthromorphic principle. Either things are the way they are for us or they are the way they are in spite of us. Choose

No I'm not.... Order and randomness were both present at the beginning.

The question was how do you get order out of the chaos of the early universe.

Your point, from the best I can decipher, is that there was no order we just think there is. The question was not about the inevitability of us, but the inevitability of order. Bringing up Anthropomorphisms are not necessary when know one was asking about the inevitability of Man, just order.

This question is about removing the anthromorphic veiw of a creative force.

You are missing the point Moontanman.
