I see no real problems with your remarks other than that I am waiting to
see how this affects life ?
For instance one can have 'spontaneous' decrease in entropy and at far
equilibrium the decrease in entropy and increase in order can be shown to
be almost inevitable (Prigogine).
At the primordial earth we have 1) chemicals 2) energy (sun, lightning
etc). We do know from lab experiments that 'spontaneously' aminoacids can
form from simple building blocks under a variety of circumstances.
My question to you is, is this problem between life and thermodynamics
only for the origin of life or does it apply to life itself ?
