"ENTROPY"

"And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon, and the  dragon and his angels waged war." (Rev. 12:7)  en-tro-py (en'tra-pee)n.  1. A measure of the capacity of a system to undergo spontaneous change; thermodynamically specified by the relationship: dS = dQ/T, where dS is an infinitesimal change in the measure for a system absorbing an infinitesimal quantity of heat at absolute temperature T.    2. A measure of the randomness, disorder, or chaos in a system; specified in statistical mechanics by the relationship: S = klnP + c, where  S is the value of the measure for a system in a given state, P  is the probability of occurence of that state, k is a fixed, and c  an arbitrary constant. [German Entropie : Greek en-, in + trope, a turning, change!] [The Indo-European  root is: trepp, turn.] Here is the classic battle between God and the devil; light and darkness; good and evil; life and death; love and hatred; order and chaos.             Entropy is the Enemy!               But, "God is Life" (Jn. 11:25; 1:4; 5:26)                         The elegant order and progress of life is no less than a miracle in the face of the laws of entropy.  In spite of the fact that entropy eventually destroys individual lives, LIFE goes on, and grows on! And, "God is Light" (1Jn. 1:5)                        There are very few forms of life that are not, at the very least,  indirectly dependent on the existence of light.  "Particles" of light (quanta); timeless photons, owe their relative constancy to their ultimate relationship with two big "G"s: Gravity and God Himself! The Constant (measured) speed of light is equal to the square root of Energy (in Ergs) divided by Mass (in grams or metric tons) or: 186,280 miles per second.   This is the proper expression of Einstein's famous inverse square proportion (The Constant cannot actually be squared, except as a mathematical function of the equivalence of matter and energy.  Nothing exceeds "C" except Spirit, or the tachyon! (see below.) Surprise! Gravity is not really a force!  It is equivalent to inertia; the warping of space/time which keeps "C" constant near accelerating bodies.  Gravity is quite simply a natural warping of space/time in the vicinity of matter. Nevertheless, inertial and G effects are very, very powerful! "And God said: 'Let there be light', and there was light,  and God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness." (Gen. 1:3,4) "This is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin." (1Jn. 1:5-7) "When Yahshvah (sic: "Jesus") spoke again to the people, He said,  "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." (Jn. 8:12) " In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made.  In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it." (Jn. 1:1-5) But, "God is Spirit" (Jn. 4:24) He trancends all forms of created matter and energy, including light and gravity.  A good candidate for a simple theoretical understanding of the nature of "Spirit" is Tachyon theory.  Absolute (infinite, or "imaginary") Space/Time can be completely "filled" by a single Tachyon, moving at infinite speed.  Modern theoretical physicists, striving for their proverbial "Grand Unification" theory, or, the "Theory of Everything",  would do well to look again to Tachyon theory!  That single "infinite" Tachyon gives rise to all the "Strings" of "quanta"; and pantheons of esoteric sub-atomic particles of matter and energy!  Tachyon theory can fully explain how a created "thing" can be in two places (or all places) at once.  On the quantum level, within googols and googols of infinitisimally tiny closed loops (or "strings"), the single infinite streaming, streaking, and vibrating Tachyon becomes the only possible "exception" to Einstein's rule of "C" in our Space/Time Continuum. Finally, "God is Love" (1Jn. 4:8) Kahlil Gibran once said: "Love is life, longing for itself."  "But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Yahshvah (sic: "Jesus") Christ." (1Cor. 15:57) "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." (Jn. 15:13) Because He loves us so much, we now share in His VICTORY over darkness, decay, death, chaos and the enemy of all ordered systems: entropy. Praise God! (... and may the "force" be with you.)
