I have never been to a creationist web site in my life. I have however been to a number of chemistry class as my degree is in biochemistry. I do know that entropy is a measure of disorder and that without outside influence entropy will increase. Am I missing anything yet, oh lord of science?

How does this become "irrelevant because of the sun"? It sounds like you have your talking points down, but nothing to back them up.

Yes. You are approaching entropy from the creationists "disorder" perspective and ignoring the thermodynamic concept of entropy, the ability of a system to do work.

Do you know what a "thermodynamic heat engine" is?
