What does entropy have to offer us as individuals?
Part I of II
Entropy implies that change is the key to ‘being alive.’
•
Science only deals with the observable and leaves the debate regarding the unobservable to religions and philosophy.
The science of entropy predicts the ‘death’ of the universe.
As such, entropy implies there was ‘something’ before, which implies there may very well be ‘something’ after.
It does not seem logical that this ‘something’ would not exist between the stages of ‘before’ and ‘after.’
Therefore, we assume this ‘something’ exists now – is living now.
Entropy offers us an understanding that, although the universe may ‘die,’ each of us as individuals may survive this ‘death.’
Entropy reinforces the religious idea of ‘eternal life’ for the individual.
Eternity is simply a state of being that came well before the universe, continues to exist, and will continue to exist beyond the death of the universe.
