Without your silly humor and personal attacks.....

.....Simply explain how nothing in the entire universe escapes the effects of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics.......BUT.....evolution (the exact opposite of 2nd LoD) always semms to??? They can't both be in effect, and one IS a scientific law.
 
This law only applies to a closed system, and the only truly closed system is the universe itself.
 
you don't understand the second law. entropy doesn't increase always and everywhere - otherwise no processes with local negative entropy changes would ever occur, and yet they do, all the time, if there is a suitable flow of energy to drive them. evolution takes up a tiny tiny part of this energy. it's the total entropy, in the system plus the surroundings, that increases.

hey, you're a capitalist, maybe you'll get this. if I give you two dollars and you give me three dollars, have I got more money than I started with or not? I think I do, but how can that be, when I gave you two dollars?? if you think that's silly, well your misunderstanding of the second law is no less silly, and in a similar way.
