If the fundies say that evolution violates the second law of thermodynamics, by created more complex organisms, while they should be more simple by an increase of entropy. Does that means that air conditioners are an aberration in the eyes of god cause they do the same?

Of course both systems create more entropy and neither violates the second law. but fundies love to say that evolution violates the second law.
I wonder what would they do if they heard of the maxwell's demon

In a closed system entropy maximizes. It takes energy--work-to reverse the flow of entropy locally--to create more order. If the closed system were just the earth--I'd agree with the fundies--however--the closed system involves the universe--therefore--entropy decreases locally--because of the sunlight we recieve from the sun (an energy source). In order to create the sunlight (fusion powered) the entropy of the sun increases orders of magnitude more than the local decrease on planet earth--overall entropy is conserved--it increases. The second law of thermodynamics does not speak of local events in a closed sytem--merely the overall state of the closed system. The AC example is a good one, entropy is decreased--but it required energy--electricity in this case. to generale the electricity, coal or oil or wood is burned--and the entropy of what was coal or wood or oil is greatly increased. Taken as a system the overall entropy of the air condition--electrical grid--increases and is in perfect agreement with second law.

The ones that say that don't fully understand what entropy is and understand evolution even less, but I think they claim the thermodynamics law violation for evidence against the big bang.

I definitely have been blocked additionally. the comparable guy or woman who blocked @secretsauce additionally blocked me. She would not like it whilst her idiotic statements approximately evolution are refuted. I definitely have additionally been stated and my answer deleted numerous cases because of the fact those reporting me do no longer like it as quickly as I divulge the lies they use approximately evolution. And it form of feels that this is impossible to get Y!A to opposite the deletion. to illustrate, in a pair of situations the reporter had used hyperlinks to internet sites that used despicable arguments against evolution and that i uncovered them for being despicable. i attempted to get my answer reinstated yet interestingly the hypocrisy of the deletion did no longer propose something. by how, it sounds as though that my punishment for being stated is to have my avatar label as an excellent Contributor additionally deleted. extra: @im: "you are going to be blocked from talking with an solutions member, yet you won't be in a position to be blocked from answering the question of any solutions member. " incorrect! If the member blocks you, the question does no longer arise once you click on it. fairly there's a message announcing you won't be able to get admission to the question at the instant. extra: @Mithroramir: "the great bang concept is the medical creation tale, besides the incontrovertible fact that it claims that mild can not age (relativity concept) and yet it does age by distinctive function of the backround microwave radiation got here across by Penzias and Wilson. So which of those 2 at the same time unique propositions is actual? " you do no longer understand what the cosmic microwave historical past is. the enlargement of area from the time of the great bang has stretched the unique radiation to a a lot decrease frequency. great Bang concept held that the unique radiation might have stretched by a definite volume and that quantity became what became measured. That length provided affirmation of the great Bang. you are going to be able to desire to get your techniques from good materials (or is what you mentioned basically something which you erroneously got here up with on your very own suggestions).

I'm not sure, but I'd be more than happy to take their air conditioners off their hands. To save their souls, of course!

If they reject the third law they can avoid the problem. (The third law equates heat energy with entropy.)
