Invest,


I've pointed out repeatedly that ID and evolution are not mutually exclusive.  None of us can deny the possibility, albiet a small one, that an intelligence directed evolution.  What we are denying is that evolution and/or life requires an intelligent designer.  What we are saying is that even if there was an intelligent designer, we probably would never be able to tell.


I have a question about you assessment of evolution violating thermodynamics (if it really did, don't you think all physicists would reject evolution?) and life being asystem that is always in a state of declining energy:  It what you say is the case, wouldn't the birth of new life violate thermodynamics?  Wouldn't growth violate thermodynamics?


That is why I explained that your assessment of entropy is incorrect because entropy only is required to increase in a closed system.  Life is not a closed system and there are many non-living systems in nature where entropy actually decreases, snowflakes and crystal formation for instance.
