The Second Law of Thermodynamics describes pretty much the reason why anything happens.So you agree that mutations happen and the reason they happen is because of the 2nd Law?

Dear noguru,
Where are you? Congrats on winning that Bronze Membership. Do you know who gave it to you yet?? I can't wait to hear all of the details. Somebody out there thinks you're special, and of course, you ARE!!!
In Christ's Love,
Michael

Indirectly? Then what is the direct cause?Was that your argument? That mutations happen? Mutations do happen, and you could say indirectly they are caused by the movement of heat.

Dear noguru,
Who gave it to you? Bybee?
God's Blessings,

I think they happen because God causes it to happen. Do I get a prize now?

Maybe nature created nature.

The nature of space-time led to inflation from a singularity. We live in the part of the life of the universe that allows atoms to exist as such. Hundreds of billions of years from now this will not be possible because the universe will have been eaten by black holes, which will themselves eventually evaporate as matter spreads out until there are no more energy differences and the universe has nothing happening in it that would be worth mentioning. So says the version of the universe that ends in entropy death. Doesn't sound very 'eternal' to me. And seems a perverse way to exercise a 'deeper purpose' when the end state is thermodynamic stalemate.Or it is just eternal? I have no problem with that. Though I choose to believe there is a deeper purpose behind it all. I call that purpose "God".

Still, it's fabulous to be here to theorise thus!

You could take two different senses of the word nature, though, couldn't you. The nature of space time created the things we call nature.And Logic has been vandalized. Why? Because if nature created nature, it had to exist to create itself. Since it already existed, it did not have to create itself because it already existed. Conclusion? Nature could not have created nature. Simple Logic.
There is the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which appears to be pretty robust. Things are definitely winding down as matter/energy spreads. That can't go on for what most people would imagine "eternity" to be.The basic components appear to be eternal, even in the face of all those facts. And the universe itself seems to be those basic components in flux. They seem to be flowing/dynamic, rather than static/stagnant. So there is no reason to accept that they will ever become static/stagnant.

I realise that is perilously close to equivocation. But hey, that's what Stripe said "evolutionists do", so I shouldn't disappoint him, right?
