The first and second laws of Thermodynamics (basically life comes only from life and everything winds down like a clock - going from order to disorder) blow the theory of evolution out of the water.

No it doesn't. If your MISunderstanding of the laws of thermodynamics were correct, then it would be impossible for a fertilized egg to grow into a adult. Obviously, something is very wrong with your grasp of the laws of thermodynamics.

All scientists that I have heard of or read about fully endorse both laws.

Yes, they most certainly do. And they also fully *reject* erroneous misapplications of those laws, such as the way you misuse them.

Can they not see the hypocrisy???

I can see your hypocrisy just fine -- you attempt to use science in order to "disprove" science, and you do it incorrectly.

You cannot believe either Law of Thermodynamics (1st or 2nd) and embrace the Theory of Evolution.

Wrong again.

I really wish creationists would try to *learn* some science (*real* science, not the cartoon-version they present in the creationist pamphlets) before they attempt to critique it.

Sheesh.

Here, read this and gain an actual education on the subject before you try again: Thermodynamics, Evolution and Creationism

Actually, what the article said was that going from disorder to order without a specific, ordered MECHANISM to do so was not possible. The fertilized egg is itself a specific, ordered mechanism.

I'm not sold on the argument from thermodynamics, but you might at least characterize the position correctly.
