Second Law (entropy)

 

I'll stand by what men of science have to say about it. Entropy does not

increase in an open or closed system.

The Second Law opens another huge

gap along with the transitional forms in the evolutionary hypothesis.

The imaginary age-long evolution of the biosphere must, of course, be

discussed in terms of open-system thermodynamics, but this fact in no way

helps the case for evolution..

The influx of heat energy into any open system (as, say, from the sun onto

the earth) will NOT naturally improve the organization of that system, as

evolution would require, but will increase the entropy (that is

disorganization) of the system more rapidly than if the system remained

closed. to verify this, one need only examine the simple thermodynamic

equation for heat flow into an open system.

Where do evolutionists get the

quaint and quite unscientific notion that solar energy is a sufficient

explanation to account for evolution? Solar energy has not generated life

or evolution on Mars or Venus, so how can it so so on earth? The fact is

that any system that does experience an increase in its organized

complexity must be much more than merely an open system with external

energy available to it.

These are necessary, but not sufficient,

conditions. in addition, the system's growth in complexity must be directed

by a previously created program and then energized through a previously

designed energy storage and-conversion mechanism. E.g Seed into a plant is

directed by its genetic code and implmented by the echanism of

photosysnthesis. Similarly the "evolution" of a building fromna pile of

bricks, etc. is dircted by a bluprint implemented by the construction

machinert and the muscular skills of the builders.

The evolution of the earth's biosphere in the space\time continiim, from

primeval checmicals to a complex array of plants, animals and human beings

represents a far greater increase in organized complexity that a plant or a

building, yet it apparently had no directing program (chance?) and no solar

energy conversion mechanism (mutations?). Thus, the entropy principle does

indeed define any significant amount of upward naturalistic evolution as

completely unsecientific. Evolution would require an unending string of

miracles to make it work!
