How Did Our Universe Get Here?-The Controversy -Law and Order



From personal experience, you likely know that all things tend toward disorder. As any homeowner has observed, when left to themselves, things tend to break down or disintegrate.  Scientists refer to this tendency as "the second law of thermodynamics."  We can see this law at work daily. If left alone, a new automobile or bicycle will become scrap. Abandon a building and it will become a ruin. What about the universe?  The law applies there too. So you might think that the order brought throughout the universe should give way to complete disorder.

However, this does not seem to be happening to the universe, a Professor of Mathematics Roger Penrose discovered when he studied the state of disorderliness (or, entropy) of the observable universe.  A logical way to interpret such findings is  to conclude that  the universe started off in an ordered  state and is still highly organized.  Astrophysicist Alan Lightman noted that scientists "find it mysterious that the universe was created in such a highly ordered condition."  He added that "any successful theory of cosmology should ultimately explain this entropy problem"-why the universe has not become chaotic. 

Note: Because Jehovah God is able to keep it in order, not humans. 

In fact, our existence is contrary to this recognized law. So why is it that we are  alive here on earth?  As previously noted, that is a basic question that should want answered.
