Imagine that.

Let’s see what loophole modern physics can provide for the evolutionist.

This is just plain silly. Evolution and the 2nd law of thermodynamics are not incompatible. Processes considered part of thermodynamically open systems, such as biological processes that are constantly receiving, transforming and dissipating chemical energy (and even the earth itself which is constantly receiving and dissipating solar energy), can and do exhibit properties of self organization far from thermodynamic equilibrium.

No loopholes are required. An open system is different than a closed system.

You can not prove that God created everything because that would negate faith. God requires faith.

I'm not saying that evolution happened, but that you'll never be able to disprove it. Looking for the fingerprints of God is trying to set yourself up as superior to God. Good luck trying to find a fault in His perfect creation.

No, the problem is that creationists don't understand thermodynamics.

That's about the dumbest thing I've ever read. Evolution and the law of "no right on red until after stop" are also incompatible.
