Entropy

A closed system tends toward disorder. But only a closed system. Creationists forget this when they argue that entropy works against a naturalist explanation for the origin of life on Earth. The Earth is not a closed system because we constantly get energy from the sun. So it won't necessarily tend toward disorder overall.

Phonetic

English isn't a purely phonetic language because arabic numerals are not phonetic.
