Well then you ought to know better than to claim the evolution defies the second law of thermodynamics, when that law clearly states that it applies to CLOSED SYSTEMS. Hint: the Earth ain’t one.

Bunk.

First of all, the law applies to ISOLATED SYSTEMS. The universe is an isolated system

Second of all, regarding the open versus closed system argument, Dr John Ross of Harvard University states:
“… there are no known violations of the second law of thermodynamics. Ordinarily the second law is stated for isolated systems, but the second law applies equally well to open systems. … There is somehow associated with the field of far-from-equilibrium thermodynamics the notion that the second law of thermodynamics fails for such systems. It is important to make sure that this error does not perpetuate itself.” John Ross, Chemical and Engineering News, 7 July 1980, p. 40; cited in Duane Gish, Creation Scientists Answer their Critics Institute for Creation Research, 1993.

Common sense tells you that things left to themselves tend toward maximum randomness or entropy. Blowing up a garage and ending up with a working car defies rationality. Sorry you’ve been duped by your lying Leftist professors.
