Thermodynamics is concerned with macroscopic processes

How do the laws of thermodynamics support that the universe came from nothing?
They don't. What they do support is that the Universe must have had a beginning. This is because, according to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, there are irreversible processes in nature - the Universe can't remain the way it is forever.

What are the two Laws of Thermodynamics and what do they tell us about organisms seemingly defying entropy?
The first law of thermodynamics is often called the ''Law of Conservation of Energy''. This law suggests that energy. can be transferred from one system to another in many forms. Also, it can not be ''created'' or ''destroyed''. Thus, the total amount of energy available in the Universe is constant.Second Law of ThermodynamicsAs a result of this fact of thermodynamics, natural processes that involve energy transfer must have one direction, and all natural processes are irreversible. This law also predicts that the entropy of an isolated system always increases with time. Entropy is the measure of the disorder or randomness of energy and matter in a system.Third Law of ThermodynamicsThe third law of thermodynamics states that if all the thermal motion of molecules kinetic energy could be removed, a state called absolute zero would occur. Absolute zero results in a temperature of 0 Kelvins or -273.15° Celsius
Which two laws in the universe govern all processes involving heat and energy?
The first and second laws of thermodynamics.
Different between thermal and thermodynamics?
Thermal is an adjective, meaning to do with heat. Thermodynamics is a noun, a branch of physics to do with the thermal properties of materials, and has several laws which are the basis of design of heat engines and other thermal processes.
