Nah. We have almost infinite energy to use from the Sun, and with enough energy other resources can easily be reused.
Add to that that the correlation between human wellbeing and energy usage is 1:1.
The second law, as we now know, is quite clear to state
That entropy must increase and not dissipate
Creationists always try to use the second law
To disprove evolution, but their theory has a flaw
The second law is quite precise about where it applies
Only in a closed system must the entropy count rise
The earth’s not a closed system, it’s powered by the sun
So fuck the damn creationists, Doomsday get my gunYou down with Entropy?
Creationists always try to use the second law To disprove evolution
The fuck? How does that even work?
Living things are “entropy eaters” — they take in energy, reduce their own entropy, and poop out entropy to the environment. This is fine, and it doesn’t violate any thermodynamics if you look at the whole picture.
So I think the point is that creationists take a myopic view and only look at the creature itself, where indeed it reduces its own entropy…but that’s because the creationists are stupid and ignore, you know…everything else.
This is true not only for individual animals, but for evolution itself — more complexity in animals can be viewed as a decrease in entropy (again, this is only a problem if you ignore the rest of the universe).
Their argument is the same as saying that you can open your fridge door to cool off your room.
What do you think you posted?

I think I posted an entirely jokey comment in reference to this specific line in your comment.
Thus:

I’m guessing that he’s driving a customized Lada that has been converted to a convertible … a lot easier for me and everyone else to hop in for a ride.
Catabolic capitalism should be avoided.
