                          We live in a universe governed by certain LAWS.  For example, the law of gravity says when
                          you drop something, it will fall to the ground.  It always happens.  Never will anything float
                          up (if heavier than air) but it falls under the law of gravitational forces.  Laws of
                          thermodynamics are trustworthy.  The 2  Law states that all systems move from order to
                                                              nd
                          disorder.  It is also called the Law of Decay.  It states that everything is falling apart as
               systems gradually lose energy.  All living things age and eventually die.

               God created all these Laws.  These Laws are universally accepted as reality and fact.  Today we are going
               to look at some of God’s Laws and discover that they demonstrate that evolution cannot possibly be
               true.  Let’s dig in….

               14.2 Objectives


                      1.  The student should be able to discuss the Laws of Thermodynamics and the Law of Angular
                      Momentum.


                      2.  The student should be able to explain Irreducible Complexity and see how it demonstrates
               that a designer is necessary for a complex system to exist.

               3.  The student should be able to offer several examples of irreducible complex systems in nature that
               could not have come into existence through evolution.


               13.3 The Biological Machines – The importance of Information

                          Introduction

                          Science has observed that there are constant laws in the universe that always can be relied
                          upon and that form the basis upon which the universe operates and life systems depend.
                          This lesson will study some of those basic laws to see how they fit with either the Genesis
                          story or evolution.

               As scientists have probed deeper into biological systems, especially on the molecular and atomic level,
               they have discovered that all living systems are actually miniature machines.  We want to look into some
               of those machines to see how tremendously complex they are, then ask the question, “Could this have
               happened by chance?”

               Evolutionary scientists claim that life began by rote chance from a non-living “primordial soup” and that
               all of what we see is billions of changes which happened accidently and just by coincidence, helped the
               evolving animal better survive.  Let’s look at the mathematical probability of some of these “rote
               chances” happening to form life.
