Spontanious evolution violates the law of entropy, also known as the second law of thermal dynamics. The law states that without external input no system can become more complex (more ordered or better constructed). This is simple physics, but many "scientists" don't understand it.

They understand it far better than you, I'm afraid. First off, you've mistated the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics which actually states that the entropy of an isolated system never decreases.

Note the term "isolated." The Earth's biosphere is not isolated. There is a constant infusion of energy from the Sun.

Please also notice it is not necessary for entropy to increase.
