JN, >>Key parts of evolution concept (no matter what particular variation) is:
that things advance from lower, less complex forms, to higher, more complex forms, by chance, with absolutely no intervention of outside intelligence.>>
that's not true. every one of those statements. to prove this my ststment all i need is to give one contrexample to each. (i) [side comment: evolution can occur not only to things, this sould teach you not to get too general talking about specifics, as you are likely to make illogical/wrong statements] consider evolution of human dress in the last couple of hundred years - dresses were more complex in the begining, less complex now. (ii) define "chance", what may look like "chance" to you may be a law of nature to me. (iii)intervention of outside intelligence is usualy present in evolution of engineered products - quite obvious.
>>This is in conflict with the 2nd law of thermodynamics.>> State how you understand 2nd law of termodynamics, as i (who is quite familiar with it) fail to see its relevance in the situation under discussion.
