I know what your saying starboy. I just last week had a talk with my chem prof about entropy and how it works. the basic idea is that the entropy of the universe always increase or remains the same, it will never decrease, it does this according to the formula Entropy = Energy(J)s / Temperature(K), now you can do anything you want in a reaction as long as it follows to rule that i jsut stated. here i'll put forward an experiment for you. if you were to take 1 ml of water at 0 C and you added it to 1 ml at 100 C you would get a 2 ml solution that is at 50 C. That process will increase to order of the universe, however you had the 100 C water going to a state that was less random.

If you assume the atom as the starting point and look at the present, then biology must be increasing in order. But if you look at things like rate of extinction compared to rate of species generation...or increasing cancer rates (that is, the harmful mutation of DNA)...and trace that line all the way back to origin, it points to a MORE complex biological history rather than a less complex biological history.


Forgive me i dont understand your logic here. What points to a more complex biological history?
