I was taught that the single thing that seperates a theory into a law is expeiremental evidence. That person was my physics teacher in fact, and I trust him.
My understanding of this definition means that evolution can never be considered a law, or it could but it would take a very long time. Because well an experiment needs to be done following the scientific method in order for the Theory of Evolution to be considered the Law of Evolution. I am assuming Evolution in the whole big picture, new species. And well that will take billions and billions of years according to the theory.
As for the thermodynamics law and theory statements made before.....I believe it is actually a law. You can measure the heat of formation of a reaction, and you can measure the entropy of a reaction. All chemical reactions tend to travel to lower enthalpy and higher entropy. I did a couple experiments my self in my chem lab this year with thermodynamics.
Is this the same dynamics you guys are talking about? Because if it is there are plenty of experimental evidence to make it a law. But I am kinda confused so I may be talking about something completely different.
Later guys.
