Dear James,
According to the second law of thermodynamics, the entropy (disorder)
will always increase.
But this is a general law, and there is one big
problem in applying this law to the origin of life, namely, that it
is only valid definitively or conclusively inside a closed system;
in
a part of an open system the entropy can decrease, provided that it
increases somewhere else. So, I think that the only way to make an in
depth study of the origin of life is the cumbersome way that I
followed.
