"Unfortunately, out here in the real world, the probability distribution is extremely anisotropic which makes the applicability of a model based on isotropic probability distributions pretty questionable. The probability distribution of the molecular conformation phase space is extremely biased and irregular, though many creationists/ID-ists pretend otherwise for the sake of their argument."

A giant crock of baffle-gab!!!

I thought only Iche-brother could concoct such obliquely directed irrelevance. How is you Disgronificator doing today? Your muffler bearings are in from Haiti Scientific, whenever you'd like to pick them up.

It's hugh. The beeber stays stuck on stune.

So you are asserting that the phase space of molecular interaction has a flat (or nearly flat) probability distribution? That the process of chemistry is not a DAG? If so, in which universe?

Here's a nickel. Buy yourself a chemistry book. If you are feeling adventurous, look up computational chemistry.

As you say. The analogy I find useful is eddies in a stream. Anomolous results can occur in a limited space for a limited time. But like an eddy, they will soon vanish into the main current leading toward the ocean, or heat death.

To think that such eddies can result in all the higher orders of life is to argue that eddies can build on one another, perhaps a million stages of growth, until they produce a lasting result. No, undirected nature doesn't work that way.

If you spent a year flipping coins, you might possibly get a run of 100 heads in a row, although it's extremely unlikely. More likely a run of 15 or 20 would be the best you could do. Evolution is the equivalent of billions of heads in a row.
