You apparently assume this professor was preaching creation; the article implies she was questioning evolution. There's a difference.

Not in practice. Challenges to evolution invariably come from those with another agenda. There are no good scientific reasons to challenge evolution.

You assume she doesn't believe in the laws of thermodynamics. That doesn't make sense since they are more of an obstacle for evolutionists rather than creationists (if, in fact, she is a creationist).

I was making an analogy. FYI, there are no thermodynamic issues with Evolution.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear a high school biology teacher refer to the "law of evolution" rather than the "theory of evolution," but a college professor? I find that indeed very curious

I have no idea why.

These statements are assumptions and opinions, but not facts, and I disagree. The science-based challenges to evolution are well known to all who are knowledgeable.

If you are suggesting that the Second Law of Thermodynamics is in no way an issue with the Theory of Evolution, then that is ridiculous and completely untrue.
