Only in the world of creationists is evolution random.

The "Creationists" I've talked to understand that neo Darwinism envolves both randomness (chance) and an organizing principle. (i.e.natural selection).

Involves randomness is which genes combine yes. But it is NOT a random process, and every single time anybody tries to attack evolution with the word “random” all they prove is they don’t know what they’re talking about.

Evolutionary theory most importantly is based on physics and chemistry, which Creationists always neglect to mention, but they mention randomness so often it would make a parrot hoarse.

And why they have an issue with randomness I don't know. It's all over God's creation, and we're all the result of a random combination of our parents traits, which seems to be noncontroversial.
