Discipler,
I think you're sort of taking the second law out of context. It has nothing to do with the development of complex systems. It is the total entropy of a system always increases. The ideas are usually applied to a gas in two rooms with a small opening. Its not meant to be applied to an organsim, then you would have to analyze the whole system the animal and its environment. Entropy has been abosobed by the design world to mean all sorts of myth like things but its a pretty hard science. Its comparing a number of states. It's been a while since I studied it but it has nothing to do with complex sytems forming. Then stars would be a violation of entropy and their not. Thermodynamics is a very hard science meaning all math and little room for philosophy. And you can not take the prinicples out of context like that.
