→‎Logical examples: recast a claimed counterexample in better math terms
Line 15: Line 15:  
# The Theory of Evolution dictates that all organisms descended from single celled bacteria. Considering that bacteria is, and always has been, the most successful group of organisms, covering all areas of the globe in some of the most extreme environments, why would it have been advantageous to evolve into organisms that are so much more limited to the environments they can inhabit? Surely, staying as bacteria would be far more advantageous, due to their tolerence of extreme conditions, quick reproduction time, etc.

# The [[Second Law of Thermodynamics]] establishes that matter in the universe becomes more disordered over time when in the absence of intelligent intervention; the theory of evolution falsely claims that some systems can become more ordered, bringing to mind the impossible [[perpetual motion machine]].

# The [[Law of Large Numbers]] states that things tend to revert to their average over time (the large number of examples), while evolution requires the opposite:  that things become more complex and depart further from their average over time and large numbers of examples.

# The [[Law of Large Numbers]] states that the average of independent and identically distributed random variables tends to revert to their average over time.  Since this does not happen, this indicates that the population is, in fact, changing over time, as evolution suggests it ought to.
