Oh geez, not this again. The above is a completely false and incorrect understanding of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, which, unfortunately, is pretty routine.
I know all of your arguments....
Open system/Closed system, etc.
I notice there was no response or snide remarks about the other laws that were mentioned, how come?
How would you respond to this:
This rebuttal is given by Professor Andy McIntosh, PhD in Aeronautics. The full article can be found at http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/2007/02/12/just-add-energy:
The laws of thermodynamics have one law in particularthe Second Law of Thermodynamicswhich says that in a closed system the amount of energy that is no longer available for useful work is increasing. This is energy lost to the system per unit degree of temperature, and it is called the entropy of the system .
The principle of energy loss for useful work still applies in an open system, since there is no benefit unless there is a machine to use the energy added. Boeing 777s cannot be made in a car factory by adding loads of sunlight or electricity unless the machinery is available to use that energy to build Boeing 777s. Similarly the human brain cannot be formed from simpler machines just by adding energy if there is no machinery available to do this. Spontaneously forming of such machinery will not happen.
