| second law of thermodynamics |
Entropy - The tendency of an energy system to run down; systems go from a higher to a lower state of order. Entropy is the scientific description of creation under the curse of sin, therefore decay, death and degeneration. Evolution espouses that organisms move from a lesser state of organization to a higher state, or up hill (microbes to man) and therefore is diametrically opposed to, and breaks this Second Law of Thermodynamics!
