Are you a physicist? I guess that entitles only your single viewpoint to be serious while others are laughable.

The material that I quoted from Answers in Genesis was written and edited by scientists. I think you're presenting a relatively new theory as uncontested fact to support your argument.

String theory and chaos are very interesting fields of study but not incontrovertible facts you can use to dismiss any opinion that doesn't match your own apparently well-accredited background. I think you're using theory to intimidate people into thinking that theories are established fact.

Hi GOPPachyderm :-)

I have an undergraduate physics background only :-) I am actually a virologist, sorry my intent was not to intimidate but to present some scientific rebuttal to the debate. The anti-chaos theory has a huge wealth of corroborative research as well as being observable within many biological systems. Anti-chaos theory has a large body of credible empirical support. It is germane to my field of microbiology. For the record I consider myself a Christian so i do think I have the benefit of a credibility and objectivity when I make these points.

"String theory and chaos are very interesting fields of study but not incontrovertible facts "

This is an established aspect of nonlinear math not string theory.

Also the rest of the thermodynamics points such as energy within closed and open systems where erroneous. I don't think they where written by a physicist.
