More to the point, the second law of thermodynamics only applies to closed systems. The Earth is not a closed system — it receives massive amounts of energy every day from a star approximately 1 Astronomical Unit away.

Simply dumping large amounts of uncontrolled energy in a system does not automatically result in order.

For order to occur, work must be done. What's the source or work?

IN addition to my statements about organic chemical reactions requiring strict controlled procedure (refinement of product, controlled energy, etc.) to arrive at a desired result of less complex molecules than say, DNA, or cell membranes, it’s simply extremely unreliable, or statistically absurd, to expect for complex organic molecules such as DNA to form spontaneously. See #48. The idea that life was formed on its own without direction is absurd, or extremely improbable.

Alter Kraker your post is completely laughable. Are Ichthyosaurs newly discovered? Why, no, they are not! We discussed this ‘happy’ little creature on freerepublic at least 3 years ago, http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2790543/posts, yet science actually has known about this creature since 1834.

As usual these evolution posts carry very little credibility.

For my money what is even better than the vast majority of mathematicians overwhelming rejection of macroevolution, is the mere idea Shannon proposed with the theory of information. TOI completely trumps TOE for one overwhelming and obvious reason - the act of debating this nonsense itself.

Think about it, all code proves an intelligence is needed to author it. We’re talking not just about the written and spoken word, let alone grammar and language formation, we’re also involving all the accumulated knowledge of man, available to all who can access the internet and all the technology that makes this possible.

Why, it’s more obvious than the nose on your face that mankind is uniquely and vastly different from all the rest of the animal world in all that we have created. Created in the image and likeness of God!

And yet that is still not the epitome of this senseless debate because not only did language have to originate with an intelligence to teach Adam and Eve the art of conversing, sharing and accumulating this knowledge but that same higher intelligence was most obviously the author of all the vast array of unique lifeforms expressed in the DNA code.

And you and your ilk are more than happy to cast doubt upon the truthfulness of His Words?! The one in whom with live and move and have our being! I say it is utterly ridiculous to try to inform your lot any further.
