I almost feel like this is a straw man to make this controversial. I don't see why anyone, even a layman, would say this.

- zamalek 7y ago> even a layman Agreed. As far as I remember, the chemical batteries in phones circa 2005 behaved like this: you'd get gradually improving battery life over the first few cycles and then start to experience normal battery deterioration. So long as nature is paid back its entropy in full it seems to be happy.
- stcredzero 7y agoA false "entropy of matter natural law" argument used to be forwarded by "evolution debunkers." Richard Dawkins debunked this fake natural law with a thought exercise involving an hourglass with water in one chamber and salt in the other. You can tilt the hourglass to mix the salt and water in one chamber, but if you sit the device in the sun, such that the sun shines on the full chamber, you will eventually see the hourglass return to a state where water is in one chamber and salt is in the other.
