Default Entropy, or, What God really wants

"Andre Jute" wrote in message

A well-known, much-proven concept in physics is Entropy.
You will find it in the laws of thermodynamics which
control the formation and dissolution of the universe.
Entropy is disorder, randomness easily mistaken for
amorphous chaos.


Entropy was not part of the cration of the Universe according to
Christianity.

Now, all religions try to order human affairs towards a
goodly end.


Not in the short term. Perhaps Jute is unfamiliar with the words
"Tribulation", "Armageddon", etc.?

Now posit a Lord of Creation who puffed out a universe,
or many universes. I am not presumptuous enough to judge
him, but the Laws of Thermodynamics put his followers in
lose-lose-lose situation.


According to Christianity the Laws of nature were, different in the
origional design.

If he created them to create order in the sub-universe he
created for them, increasing entropy will eventually
destroy the garden of Eden he created for them ("this
best of possible worlds" -- Voltaire, Candide). They lose.


A world with entropy is, according to Christianity a temporary state.

If he did not create them to be his servants in ordering
the sub-universe he gave them, they are rats in a
laboratory forgotten by its maker, treading the mill to
entropy because that is all they know. They lose.


Jute's ignorance of Christian teachings probably explains a lot of things.
