Nice v.short write up on 2nd law of thermodynamics and evolution here

Nothing revolutionary, but concisely presented.


It might seem strange that I say living things have low information content but it would take much more information to describe in detail the location and motion of the atoms in an homogenized (think blender) alligator

Nice.

The (assumed) creationist that we are trying to convince with this would still have to be persuaded that the various statements of the 2nd law are, in fact, equivalent. Without that, I suspect the argument will feel like shifting goalposts.
