/* Recent reversion by User:Aschlafly */ new section
:It's interesting that a new user has come along with some new insights into the second law. Some people have, in the past, had difficulty editing that article. If this happens to you, feel free to edit my new page [[Essay:Commentary on Conservapedia's article on the second law of thermodynamics]].

== Recent reversion by User:Aschlafly ==
 
The introduction and part of the main body of the page was reverted to an older version by [[User:Aschlafly]]. I suggest some of it be changed back since some of the current version is wrong. For example "This principle correctly predicts that heat will never flow from a cold body to a warmer one" is clearly wrong, otherwise refrigerators would not function.
The second law is not derived from quantum mechanics as the current introduction suggests, it may be better to refer to statistical mechanics.
It may be better to put a bit more emphasis on the statistical nature of the law, that entropy can decrease in a closed system, but it is extremely unlikely, so not observed for all practical purposes. [[User:Richardm|Richardm]] ([[User talk:Richardm|talk]]) 09:42, 25 September 2016 (EDT)
