    A refutal of the claims creationists make

    There are actually 2 claims I want to talk about. The first is that Evolution violates the law of entropy.
    This is easily dismissed by physicists, as this holds only in a closed system. The temperature in an organism is mostly constant, so dS/dt=(1/T)(dQ/dt). Since the temperature is constant, the only way to increase entropy in this case is to have mass or energy added or subtracted from the organism, i.e it is not a closed system. This
    gives us dS/dt=c(dm/dt), where S is entropy, c is specific heat, t is time, and m is mass. Because there is
    entropy change in organisms, there must be mass added to the system for there to be entropy. Therefore, it is not a closed system. The mass of an organism changes very little, so we can say that entropy changes very
    little in an organism.
    The second is that it violates the conservation of information. There is no way conservation of information is
    Violated by evolution, and it isn't even an official law.

    Re: A refutal of the claims creationists make

    Greetings and peace be with you Science;

    Ok, I seem to be labelled as one of those annoying creationists, even if evolution happened, there is absolutely no way it could happen without God. The first sentence in the Bible says, 'In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.'

    This is nothing to do with science, it is faith and trust, I believe this to be a profound truth.

    In the spirit of searching for God

    Eric

    You will never look into the eyes of anyone who does not matter to God.

    Evolution theory makes no claim as to whether God is involved or not. It couldn't possibly.

    I too believe that God called us individually and the whole world we know into being. But I also believed that he used evolution as a means of doing so.

    Absolutely, hear hear. There's no reason why you can't believe that god created everything and therefore created evolution. Science can never prove there is no god. I think most scientists would accept that.

    Evolution does not have anything to do with god(s).
    Evolution does not require a god. There could be a god guiding evolution, but we don't know.
    There is no scientific evidence for or against god(s), so we don't know if there is one.

    Re: A refutal of the claims creationists make

    Greetings Science,

    There is already a thread about evolution here:
    http://www.islamicboard.com/clarific...ot-answer.html

    It seems this one will turn into a repeat, so it is better closed.

    As mentioned in the other thread, it depends on what you mean by evolution.
