In case you did not notice, Scotty claims that the universe is a closed system.

According to the author though, water cannot be pumped up hill either.
Where did he say that?

wow Scotty said this???:

"Your Evolutionary theory faces a problem in the second law, since the law is plainly understood to indicate (as does empirical observation) that things tend towards disorder, simplicity, randomness, and disorganization, while the theory insists that precisely the opposite has been taking place since the universe began (assuming it had a beginning). "

I though that was your B.S. sorry my bad.

BTW nobody ever tested the 2nd Law in an environment devoid of motion.

I've explained this to you hundreds of times, but you are too stupid to remember, apparently.

The theory of evolution works on the earth, and possibly some other places too. It is contingent upon an energy input. For us, that energy input comes from the sun. The 2nd law allows a [b]localised
decrease in entropy (life) provided that the overall entropy of the universe increases (the nuclear reactions in the sun release heat and energy).[/b]
But the Second law of Thermodynamics did allow the sun to form from a dot of matter?

The universe is a closed system. It is, however, a very big one. The very fact it is closed means nothing other than the fact that it is closed.

No. From a whole lot of matter. It's called gravity. Or perhaps you deny gravity exists now too?

He doesn't have to - its a logical conclusion of the rubbish that he's spewing forth. If the universe works the way he tries to make you believe it does, life wouldn't work, neither would basic physics. The manufacturing industry would be screwed, in short.

I never said that.

The 2nd law only talks about the whole system, not the components. One part of a system can become more complex (like, for example, a plant photosynthesizing) provided another part is increasing in entropy, providing energy for that to happen (like the nuclear reactions in the sun).

The universe is a closed system, in that there are no inputs from "outside", since there is no "outside"!

Yes, we all know a dot is a lot!

And we all know for a fact that the sun exists because of the Law of Gravity!

Scotty, you are priceless.

“Sure there is an outside. There must be an outside—otherwise there’d be no inside for us to be in...”

Just kiddin’, Scott. It just seemed as if your exclamation point was getting bigger... It seeems like such a simple concept to grasp, and you’ve put it so many ways.

And you know this how? How do you know there isn't an "outside" the universe that doesn't conform to the normal concepts of "outside"?

You preassume that the known universe is all there is and then work back from this assumption. You could be right or wrong.

Step 1; Locate Brick Wall

Step 2; Pull head back in a sharp manner

Step 3; Forcefully propel own head towards said brick wall, halting progress approximately 1 inch behind the wall.

Step 4; Repeat whenever Dj2becker or knightmeister posts.
