When we finish addressing your list of objections, I have a list for you - but only if you confess to be atheist and also do not believe that atheism (metaphysical naturalism) is a religion. Please let me know whether you would entertain the challenge...

Then, Alamo-Girl, you also need to learn some stat. mech. The claim that the second law applies only to ideal gases is over 100 years out of date. Even Boltzmann never asserted that claim; it was simply that at that time he could only prove his statistical interpretation of the second law to ideal gases.

Don't the two of you feel some duty to acquire at least a working knowledge of that on which you expound? I mean, if I claimed Plato was an existentialist, I'd be justly derided.
