Talk:Second Law of Thermodynamics

From EvoWiki

There was a near duplicate page Second law of thermodynamics which I (--Dmill96 06:10, 7 April 2006 (BST)) have converted to a redirect. The content from that page (much shorter, slightly different wording and phrasing) I have included here in case it appears I lost some critical part of its content:

The second law of thermodynamics states that the overall entropy of a closed system will tend to increase every time that system spontaneously changes. This law of physics is frequently misquoted by creationists, who attempt to demonstrate that evolution is impossible because it involves a constant increase in order, and hence a decrease in entropy. Since planet Earth is not a closed system and receives a continual input of energy from the sun, this creationist argument is entirely without merit.
