OK, let's conduct another experiment. Go out into the country and measure the height of the surrounding hills.Let's conduct an experiment. Take a new (unopened) jar of jam, jelly, or even peanut butter - direct from the supermarket shelf - and examine it carefully.
Notice that it is an "open" thermodynamic system: energy can enter and leave the container as it is exposed to different temperatures. (In fact, the container is probably also optically transparent, but that is incidental to our purposes here.)
According to the dogmas of the current high priests of biology (and other venerated elders of our society), occasionally, if you combine matter and energy, it is possible to yield new life forms. The accepted theory is that even inorganic matter, subjected to totally random processes, originally combined itself into an initial life form, from which all subsequent life evolved.
Let's now open the sealed jar and carefully examine the contents inside. Did you find any "new life"?
Of course not!
According to the dogmas of the current high priests of geology (and other venerated elders of our society), mountains were formed over millions of years as tectonic plates pushed together, forcing massive amounts of rock upwards, in some cases almost 30,000 feet high.
Let's wait a week. Now go out again. Have any of the hills you measured a week ago turned into mountains yet?
Of course not! Nobody's ever seen a hill turn into a mountain. (Well, almost nobody.) Ergo, the prevailing folklore is incorrect. QED.
