Other universes may also be able to support life, but the life in those universes would be quite different from that found in our universe. Obviously, we only know the universe in which we live and, if our universe wasn't the beneficiary of certain random events, it wouldn't be as we observe it. This does not require divine intervention of any kind. The Second Law of Thermodynamics is the opposite of evolution. According to evolution, order has increased over time, but without any energy.
Evolution is the change in gene frequency in a population over many generations.
The SLT says, in short, that in any closed system to which no energy is input, that the total amount of disorder in that system will always increase. The tiniest fraction of the energy contained in that food is converted into a localized increase in order in the form of body mass in the creature while the rest is converted into a far larger amount of disorder in the form of expelled heat energy and other waste products. You can easily prove this by considering how much food you eat in the course of a year. It doesn't disappear.
