A heck of a lot more order in the second, of course. And it occured through generally understood physical processes (not all the details are nailed down, of course.)

The problem here is the attempt to rationalize or understand God and his creations. We have finite minds and will never understand Him and the infinite.

Did you ever read Wolfram’s book? It is very thick but full of pictures. He shows that complexity is nearly unavoidable once there are just a couple lines of code in your generating program. He said the program for the universe might run to five lines of code. Kind of interesting.
