        @neiltyson My physics teacher in HS was also a pastor and he used to talk lots on entropy. "On a small enough scale, it's the hand of god."

        @samuelclay @neiltyson sounds like a pretty shitty physics teacher, unless he was being metaphorical? Doubtful if he was a pastor I suppose

        @neiltyson @TenaciousTubbs He was one of the finest teachers I've ever had. Tall and boisterous, most of his class earned 5s on the AP test.

        @samuelclay @neiltyson he also preached unevidenced personal beliefs in the classroom - something I disagree with regardless of the belief

        @TenaciousTubbs To be fair, he was such a good teacher that some of us spent our free periods hanging out in his room, so we heard more.

        @neiltyson I ask in honesty, not to be facetious: how does a cell's formation from organics NOT violate chemistry, and entropy itself?
