X121: Tornadoes in junkyards do not build things
Edited by Greg Neyman
Argument:
Order does not spontaneously appear from disorder. A tornado passing through a junkyard would not assemble a 747, even if all the required parts were present unassembled
Source: Hoyle, Fred, 1983. The Intelligent Universe, pages 18-19
Response:
-
The argument is irrelevant to evolution. Evolution does not assemble from individual parts, but works through the modification to existing parts. Order can result from the evolutionary process
-
Order does appear from disorder. A tornado is one example
-
With God guiding the evolutionary process, anything is possible. God could guide the simple into a more complex order
