Zettel 202110010238 : If Entropy is God, then honor God by cherishing time

A clock is a flow meter for entropy.

Gerard Milburn, Emeritus Professor of Mathematics, University of Queensland

Entropy and irreversible change drive the arrow of time.

We must cherish our time and use it with wisdom. This is the best way to honor our own existence. This is the best way to honor Entropy and the Arrow of Time.

[Zettel 202109062200] : What is Time?, Where I reflect on an article from Quanta Magazine about clocks, entropy, and thermodynamics. This article made me see the relationship between entropy and time. I also link Sean Carroll’s discussion The Arrow of Time in this Zettel. His discussion caused me to realize the influence of entropy in our universe. The quote from Gerard Milburn comes from the article The New Thermodynamic Understanding of Time

[Zettel 202109241251] : Is Entropy God?, When I muse on whether entropy is the one immutable force in existence. Does that quality make entropy God in a sense?
