Putting the Mental into Fundamental

Charlie Stross has uncovered an uncovering of fundamentalist wisdom. The examples he gives are all funny, but this one made me laugh out loud:

"One of the most basic laws in the universe is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This states that as time goes by, entropy in an environment will increase. Evolution argues differently against a law that is accepted EVERYWHERE BY EVERYONE. Evolution says that we started out simple, and over time became more complex. That just isn't possible: UNLESS there is a giant outside source of energy supplying the Earth with huge amounts of energy. If there were such a source, scientists would certainly know about it."

Indeed they would.
