Second law of thermodynamics refutes this.

One of us is misunderstanding? Let’s assume it’s me. With time, the entire universe will be formless, and temperature uniform, yes? We insulate, we build, we pump, and we create gradients of thermodynamic inequality at great cost, for a short time, but ultimately the moment our efforts stop…..pea soup at a few Kelvin above absolute zero. Do I have it wrong?

Have you watched Journey to the End of Time?

No, I was hoping to converse with personal understanding. I think trading other people’s understandings and perspectives of scientific theories and laws is trite.

Well at what point is it formless?

That’s not a state that is achieved.

I assume that entropy ensures that eventually all matter in the universe disassociates into constituent parts, with dissimilar atoms equally spaced from each other across the entire universe, all imbued with some equal distribution of energy in the form of uniform heat slightly greater than absolute zero. Any body or form is order, and order of any kind takes energy to maintain, as it is a concentration of matter and energy, as you kindly stated, the second law of thermodynamics states that higher orders of energy and organization necessarily diffuse over time to lower areas of energy and order until equilibrium is obtained. Such is entropy.

But at that point there is no time, that’s the end, so no medium through which it can be sustainable.

Sorry for the super obtuse trap.

Yeah, I guess I have no reason to think time stops universally, likely it stops for me at the cessation of life providing processes. Obtuse is one correct word I suppose, hidden agenda is another. 😒

How does entropy accommodate form?

Just the end of a conversation ;)
