Naturalistic Evolutionism requires that physical laws and atoms organize themselves into increasingly
complex and beneficial, ordered arrangements. Thus, over eons of time, billions of things are supposed
nd
to have developed upward, becoming more orderly and complex. However, the2 Law of
Thermodynamics reveals the exact opposite. In the long run, complex, ordered arrangements tend to
become simpler and more disorderly with time. There is an irreversible downward trend ultimately at
work throughout the universe. Evolution, with its ever-increasing order and complexity, appears
impossible in the natural world.

The evolutionists have then created billions of years of time to make the improbably possible.
Supposedly the “big bang” occurred 14.6 billion years ago, with the earth coming together about 4.5
billion years ago. For evolution to have occurred in the minds of scientists today, there had to be a huge
amount of time for the billions of changes to have arisen by rote chance.

The problem is that the addition of prolonged time periods does not increase the likelihood of
spontaneously derived information. They must account for how the laws of thermodynamics and
chemical equilibrium demand that all systems tend toward disorder with the advance of time.
Specifically, the second law demands that the total amount of information in a closed system decreases
as time advances. Another way of saying it is that information stored on magnetic tapes, pages of
books, or sequences in the DNA code ALWAYS degrades. As time advances, DNA molecules collect
informational errors or mutations and the organism eventually dies. Ink fades on ancient scrolls. Old
recordings become filled with informational noise. Actually, TIME is the enemy of organization. In every
case, time ALWAYS results in the loss of information, not an increase. So adding billions of years to the
xxi
equation only make the fairy tale more possible to believe, but doesn’t solve any problems.
Evolution demands just the opposite. To change from a one-celled creature over billions of years into a
complex man requires a million-fold increase in information stored in the DNA of each cell. Evolutionists
believe that information increases over time without any intelligent guidance; it increases by rote
chance. Such thinking flies in the face of everything we know about the effects of time on stored
information.

NOTE: Evolutionists deny the creation of the earth by a sovereign God. Instead, they claim that over
millions of years of DEATH, minute mutations formed new life forms that evolved from the old. The
strongest survived and the weak died out, creating new life forms. However, in Chapter 3, we see sin
entering the world, and as a result, death entered the newly cursed earth. Adam was a fully created
man before DEATH came into the world. To believe in evolution, you cannot believe in Creation by God.
The two faiths are incompatible.

We see an actual death in Chapter 4 when Cain killed his brother Abel. The real issue is the
separation from God which Paul explains in the New Testament. The fall reveals God’s love for mankind.
Immediately after man sinned, God provided a covering for the shame. An innocent animal died in order
to cover their shame.

Genesis 3:15 is known as “proto-evangelion” or the first gospel. It also sets the stage for mankind’s
redemption through Christ. Scripture says, “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and
between your offspring and hers, and he will crush your head and you will strike his heal.” Most scholars
agree that the offspring being discussed is Christ who will triumph over the Satan all demonic power. His
heal would be stricken can be a metaphor of the cross, but Satan’s head will be crushed!
