Hence you must (logically) mean that process ~= patterning. :-|

So, I can see that you might agree that everywhere one looks in this
universe there is an almost (but not quite) infinitely diverse non-random
proccess going on.

However, please don't agree to concur until you take into account that I
mean this conclusion to include (by intrinsic implication) that the goings
on at the quantum level (or scale) determine - in spite of the probabilistic
character (i.e., can be determined to be causal only after-the-fact and
statistically) of What Is going on "down there" (which, BTW, is far lower
and 'littlier' than what we see around here, Down Under :)) - everything
that goes on at every higher scale within the (this our) cosmos.
