2. 'Cause he loves you!! And he wants to give your mom a gift.

Evolution is a scientific theory.
The second law of thermodynamics is a scientific law.
They contradict each other.
So why is evolution taught as fact?
Question withdrawn. Sorry#nosmileys

The firestorm of political and religious debate is finally dying down on the Coleman Francis threads.
So why did I ask that last question?
Am I a masochist?
Why does my dog eat his own poop?

What will happen; will our universe go through the Big Cool or the Big Crunch?

How do they contradict each other? Ooh, that's a good one. I wonder how Miss Chloe will answer that. |

Okay, I'll answer. But I really don't want to hijack this thread with a huge battle or heated discussion. This thread is too much fun.
In a nutshell-
The second law of thermodynamics states that everything (matter and energy specifically) will always move to a state of increased disorder.
Evolution theorizes that through generational adaptations, species (containing both matter and energy) move to a state of increased complexity and order.
In short, the second law of thermodynamics does not permit order to arise from disorder. Evolution depends on order arising from disorder. Ergo, there is a contradiction.

If Jill drives 10 miles to work at 30 miles per hour and Ted drives 15 miles to work at 40 miles per hour, how come I gotta walk?

True, but you forget: Things are different on a macroscopic scale than at 10 -33centimeters. |

Hey guys,
My conscience has been bothering me all night on this one.
I was out of line asking such a loaded and baiting question. Let's end this before it gets too much momentum. We can pick up the fun details of evolutionary theory at another time and on another thread.
Sorry Miss Chloe. I withdraw my question.
But I still want to know why my dog eats his own crap.

You crazy people, with your confusing scientific thingies!
Sampo:
1. Becuase maybe they don't teach thermodynamics. I don't know, I'm only in seventh grade!!
I read your answer. Maybe. . . I still don't know.
2. Becuase you like creating hell and arguments, you evil.
3. No. A masochist is someone who enjoys getting pain inflicted upon them. From my definition above, you are a sadist, a person who enjoys inflicting pain upon others. If you are a sadomasochist, that is between you and your wife.
4. Most dogs exhibit pica, which is eating a habit just about anything. If he eats other things, then he, along with a certain percent of mental patients, has pica. if he just eats poop, then he is weird.
Nightfalcawk:
1. Well, there is a theory that the universe will go through the "Big Crunch" but will explode again. If that is true, we can very well be the fifth universe, or something. Miss Chloe knows the answer, she is just not telling.
Phantomengineer:
1. Sampo answered that.
Yousonuva:
1. Because Jill is still mad at you from her prom night and Ted is an big anus.
