Re: Telomeres, entropy, and creationists

First of all, let me say that I am not a creationist! And I do understand the open-vs-closed-system argument.

Now that that’s out of the way, I submit that the entropy argument is a matter of degree. I.e., I’m not asserting that halting entropy can’t be done, but rather that it’s going to be tough. That’s why I said I was pessimistic about halting aging. I’m not saying that it’s impossible. Regards, Dew
