The article makes a blatantly false statement which physics claims is true. It claims that irreversible processes in nature generate increasing disorder in the cosmos because this is what the second law of thermodynamics mandates that it ought to be doing. However this is in complete contradiction of the evidence, the second law notwithstanding. The 13.8 billion year history of the cosmos unambiguously shows that it is evolving from the simple to the complex, NOT the other way around. The fact that you are reading this comment is complete and sufficient proof of this proposition.
