Re: ok...

I would like you to tell us how the second law of thermodynamics is rejected by evolution. Do you even know what is meant by things like Entropy and Carnot efficiency? Do you realize that the processes that go on in your body to keep you alive do not work without the second law?
I will await your reply

We do not know the mechanism as yet that allowed for the initial start of life. There are ways in which it can happen but to know the very mechanism is going to require further refinements in our knowledge. However, the mechanism by which a cell holds the second law at bay is known and is a result of the laws of chemistry.The heat that your body produces is a result of the chemistry of your body.
I am running out of time here as I must be off to work but you can if you wish check this website until I get back this evening.

Hey buddy just a bump to keep the communication lines open and hopefully clear up any misrepresentations about thermodynamics that appear to have been presented to you.It is the weekend however and perhaps you are otherwise occupied. Talk to you later.
