have an object that I want to be able to rotate according to which point that is it is on a sphere. I have a slider that allows the user to input how many objects that they want. And based on that number the object copies itself randomly to points. For these points I have grouped them together. Since the object is in a group all of the objects are facing the same way. I want to be able to have each object to rotate to be facing outward based on where it is on the sphere.

You need attributes to tell the copy sop how to rotate. Here I've used @N and @up, other ways are to use @orient, @v, or a few others.
This tutorial might give you some clues:
