It does not then obey thermodynamic laws. At all times, in all stages of development, it obeys thermodynamic laws.
It's quite obvious in the living albatross flying away while the dead bird drops along with the 12 lb cannonball. But the will to live is also evident in bacteria, amoeba and so on.
The hypothetical 'will to live' sounds quite Nietzschean. So where in the bacterium is the 'will to live' located?
By the way, the 'panspermia' link which you continually post is quite confused. Boltzmann's constant is not mysterious at all, it's just the constant that relates our scale of temperature to our scale of energy.
Here you focus on Shannon information as if it were physical:
Again, I assert that Shannon information is the successful communication itself, the reduction of uncertainty (entropy) in the receiver.
It does not become "physical" in biological systems until that communication has occurred, the state changing in the receiver. That is why the reduction of uncertainty must (and does) obey the physical laws, including the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Whereas the sender is the inception of a particular communication it does not factor in the calculation of Shannon information at all!
Before the reduction of uncertainty in the receiver occurs, the communication is unmeasurable (intangible) and thus the thermodynamic entropy does not apply to the will to live which translates to the communication process in biological systems.
When this feature of information theory is added to the usual response that nothing can disobey a physical law, it more fully answers the "creationist appeal to the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics to refute evolution" by isolating the origin of "the will to live" and information (communications) in biological systems to the abiogenesis v. biogenesis debate - well outside the "theory of evolution".
