X12: Complexity does not come from simplicity
Edited by Greg Neyman
Argument:
Complexity does not come from simplicity. Simple things do not order themselves into more complex things
Response:
-
Complexity arises all the time in nature. Individual water molecules assemble themselves into ice crystals. The same process occurs with any liquid that forms a solid (diamonds from carbon, etc). Gravity sorts particles around Saturn' into a complex set of rings. an increase in order
-
Complexity is expected from evolution, because complexity-generating processes dissipate entropy from solar energy influxes in accordance with the 2nd law of thermodynamics
-
With God guiding the evolutionary process, anything is possible. God could guide the simple into more complex
