Some say that what we experience as time is really our experience of the phenomenon of entropy, the second law of thermodynamics. Entropy, loosely explained, is the tendency for things to become disorganized. Hot coffee always goes cold. It never reheats itself. Eggs don’t unscramble themselves. Your room gets messy and you have to expend energy to clean it, until it gets messy again.

Figured that some might actually recognize who.......and that those that didn't knew how to use Google, but then again I am prone to having unrealistic expectations.

I don't need assignments to search for origins of remarks. School is out for me.

However, if a remark comes from Scripture, then, I'm interested in who the author/writer might have been.

You can rest in peace, Murph, it is not from scripture. It is not even an exact quote from the person credited for it.

Probably not accurate and paraphrased which is also why I don't always include attributions, but please don't RIP Murph just yet, Wayne.

I once heard a theologian argue this sort of idea against evolution. It was not likely we were a dust particle floating through the atmosphere that evolved into the complex more organized being. Sounds like the same sort of idea as entropy...maybe not. I’m definitely a little out of my league here :lol:

Say no more; I'm already feeling sorry for your having to be subjected to such.

I was wishing Murph a peaceful sleep last night, not the final rest.
