  • I've heard arguments that Evolution directly goes against the laws of thermodynamics and entropy. Explain in facts?

    Not really. Thermodynamics isn't just one thing. Proteins are brilliant examples of this. You would think that a organic molecules coming together (order from chaos) would be unfavourable, right? Well... it's not so. This is because the interactions between molecules (hydrogen bonds, ionic, cation-pi, hydrophobic interactions, etc.) are far more favourable thermodynamically, than the unfavourable thermodynamics that come from becoming more ordered. Now, I could talk all day about aspects of proteins where ordered structures are more favoured than disordered... but I think you will get the idea with this post.
