Better yet, why don’t you tell us all how static non living systems such as Ice crystals and metal and mineral formations allow for serious violations of the second law trillions of times- we need a good laugh here-

I must warn you- Tim Wallace made a scientist run away crying and whining about ‘being bullied’ because the scientist couldn’t defend his silly notion that static non dynamic systems and an ‘open system’ were conducive to life seriously violating the second law not just a couple of times, but literally trillions of times when there are NO excamples of dynamic systems violating hte second law in nature. If you wish to try to advance the silly notion that life ‘could have’ violated the second law, I’ll be more than happy to indulge your sense of self-inflicted abuse. Care to engage?

The second law of thermodynamics states for a closed system; in an open system entropy is not reduced. A good example of this would be a volcanic mountain range. The energy from the core of the earth continues to add to the volcano over time, causing multiple eruption events that continue to build the mountain range.

There’s an example, and one that uses a non living system, to show now it builds and expands on itself over time given additional energy input.

Your turn, tell us how the second law negates the theory of evolution.
