What this law states is that the entropy (or disorder) of a closed system will tend to increase over There are many .ases where fossils are found in the wrong strata and instances where older blocks of strata are time. What is then suggested is that since evolution involves going from a state of less complexity to a state of found on top of younger strata. The Grand Canyon is riddled with older blocks of strata found on top of greater complexity, this flies in the face of the Second Law. younger ones. A few points need to be addressed here. First, evolution is simply change; a species can become less complex An example of this is the misplaced strata found in Glacier National Park, where there is a block of via evolution (like the tapeworm), as well as more complex. Second, the Second Law refers to entropy within a Precambrian limestone (supposedly 1 billion years old) on top of Cretaceous shale formation (supposedly only closed system. The earth and the solar system are not closed systems but the universe is. There arc at least seven 100 million years old). This "misplaced" block of limestone, which is about 350 miles long, 35 miles wide, and different forms of energy impinging the Earth (i.e.. infra-red, ultraviolet, and thermal solar, alpha, beta And 6 miles thick, obviously demonstrates that the Precambrian rocks were actually deposited after the Cretaceous gamma radiation from space as well as soil radioactivity, heat from volcanism, as well as kinetic energy from seis- rocks and that the geological column and timetable of earth history is totally meaningless. mic activity) that are available to cause a localized, temporary reversal of entropy. lithe geological column is not true, then what is?
