Milky: I discussed advancement to higher life forms in the context of the mathmetical probabilities that would be required for progressive evolution to take place. I did not say that I agree necessarily with the theory.
You are correct in that our everyday application of physics involves the regressive aspects of systems and components aging and being reduced to a neutral or balanced state. The is especially true in thermal dynamic laws where the dynamic state of heat/energy tends to move or transfer to the cold, static state. eg: the Sun will not last forever, but eventually give off enough heat and energy until it can no longer sustain its nuclear reaction. Gravety, friction and other impedences cause motion to gradually slow to a halt.
The Watch Tower Society, as many other anti-evolutionary fundamentalists religions, leans very heavily on the principals that life tends to regress from complex dynamic conditions to simple static states. They push this hard to support their religious bias.
If one looks at evolution (change) in a very global sense, we observe human technological advancement as an evlutionary progressive event. True, intelligence and work are required to move from static states to dynamic. But why does that phenonomen happen at all?
For example, why did the Big-Bang happen in the first place? Was it an act of God, or did natural physics takes its course when matter became so condensed to a single point that a dynamic reversal to explode into trillions of pieces was required.
If some human could have observed the Big Bang at its first few moments he/she may have argued that it occured because life regressed from a well organized complex enormous mass designed by God into a disorganized mess of trillions of scattered little bits and pieces we today call stars. All of which are gradually regressing into cold static states.
Then if one day the galactic star systems collapse back into singularity, another human observer would say that the well organized complex enormous galactic systems regressed into a simple static state. Arguements can be made both ways.
Also, the Society has not even begun to address the recent science of Chaos which was began to develop in the last 30 years. This science is in a sense the successor or better stated an advancement in quantum mechanics and physics.
The theories being developed as a result of Chaos start with the premise that organized systems and components are first founded in a very violent and disorderly universe. I highly recommend that you explore this field as it will overturn your present conviction that Newtonian Science is fixed in stone as some kind of exact science.
Newtonian laws and physics, while very practical with respect to our everyday application to life on earth, they are of limited value in advanced fields of quantum physics and mechanics, special and general theories of relativity, and Chaos.
