all it takes is a steady stream of energy from something we like to call Mr. Sun

It takes "faith" to accept that. Good for you.

It is a fundamental principle that order cannot increase without a source of energy. That source of energy here on earth is the sun, maybe you noticed it once or twice.

That is a fact jack. No faith (or “faith” if you prefer the scare quotes) involved. We know the principle of the second law of thermodynamics, and we know the earth isn't a closed system because we can MEASURE the energy coming from the sun. We can see living things use this sunlight to increase order. I guess I just have “faith” in photosynthesis.
