Episode 117: Starlight and Time (1 of 3)

AW Wilder-Smith Smith, a brilliant scientist with three PhD’s in the biological field, clarifies that the spontaneous synthesis of life’s building blocks, and embedding of information within life, is made absolutely impossible by the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

The second law of thermodynamics builds upon the First law by stating that all energy, which according to the first law cannot be created or destroyed, experiences a universal process of change, and it is a directional change, but it is not an upward change.

We left off last time with the clear statements in Scripture that all things wer created and have been hurled into a downward spiral of devolution and death. These Biblical realities are heavily demonstrated by the laws of thermodynamics.

Thermodynamics is one of those disciplines, heavily based in mathematics, that is supported by universally accepted, scientific laws.

To conclude our observations regarding prophecy in Scripture that allude to end times judgement, we noted a recent though dwarfish example of upcoming events by looking at Mt. St. Helens.

Last time we were looking at an interesting scripture found in the ancient book of Job, “Have you entered into the treasures of the snow, or have you seen the treasures of the hail, which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?"

Water and its characteristics are obviously specially designed to help maintain life on Earth. A very unique property of water is that ice is uniquely less dense than its liquid state, and therefore floats.

Thermal escape alone cannot explain the lack of helium in the atmosphere, and so the problem is considered “unsolved”. Could the source of the problem be the assumption that the Earth is 4 billion years old?

To explain the significant lack of helium according to an old Earth, evolutionists theorize that helium escapes the atmosphere. But is the temperature of the exosphere base high enough to allow that much helium to escape?
