There's been a semi-unique philosophical concept sitting in my head for a while now that I've wanted to actualize and put to the sword of the public forum for quite some time now, as it possesses grand implications for all belief systems and is fundamentally undeniable within its presuppositions. The rhetoric stems from influence of Buddhist tantra and a small bit of Western authorship, and I will use it to argue in favor of a form of 'theistic atheism' which values the propagation of oneself metaphysically similar to esoteric pre-Nazism. I would appreciate criticism so that I might develop it further, so do not hesitate with one's vociferity.
The following points are intended to establish what entropy is:
1. Entropy is a universal constant that is applied both in the physical and metaphysical contributing to a basis for idealism of all kinds in philosophy; one will always have a higher intangible idea to base another concept off of.
2. Entropy seeks to propagate itself similar to a lifeform, and as such given the first point of rhetoric, complexity is not necessarily an opposite of entropy and also not a digression. Complexity exists as the most efficient way for entropy to propagate itself. Complexity feeds off of ambient entropy to build itself before distributing entropy more equally over a period of time, and as such, there is only a distinction between the two due to our kingdom as humans (and this would apply to all physical life as well) being apart of that engine.
3. There is a limited amount of complexity & entropy which can exist, both occupying metaphysical spaces, while being indistinguishable past self identification from each other.
Opinionated and unopinionated arguments related to each point:
1A: Entropy is considered a universal constant in that it is not tangible unlike forces, but its effects are always clearly observable much like forces. I think of this as what has been described as synchronicity, that entropy at some level has self-recognition similar to how complexity does (undeniable given that complexity itself is entropic) and wills things to occur as a method of further propagation. This also means that entropy may choose paths to optimize itself, which is where I believe complexity begins to arise itself out of. An example that comes to mind to illustrate this is a sentient civilization which is predestined to destroy itself as it itself is creating within entropy, thereby being entropic, and it will never be able to escape the pre-existing entropic system.
1B: I believe and forecast that at some point the destruction of humanity will be dealt in suicide. This may not occur as a literal nuking of one's planet, but even something as menial as the sun consuming the Earth without humanity or its descendants ever leaving. It might not even be the fault of humanity while still being suicide, as if humanity is a portion of entropy then its destruction will be caused by the consumption of entropy by entropy, that any occurrence will be brought by the larger force in on itself. Whatever the case though, the ultimate fate of our civilizations will be that they ultimately caused more decay universally than they did not.
It is a digression to pursue the development of complex systems, and orienting oneself towards a metaphysical cause to seek their destruction.
2A: I like to imagine entropy as a living creature of some kind simply lacking a physical body, that it is whole and without separation, that all things which act in accordance with it are what could be called cells. Entropy even acts along the lines of the definition of life. It reproduces, it adapts, reproduces, develops itself, feeds off of itself, and regulates itself. In our presence in all things material, humans with their ability to distinguish themselves can act as cancer or cooperative. The highest goal in my life for what this idea brings about is that I will seek out constant destruction and execute it in the same way that higher lifeform of entropy, what I would call God, does. My existence is permanent, albeit not in this form, and ultimately I am in union with that higher state of being by nature of my existence as are you the reader. For all I know, evolution as a system could have simply existed in order to manifest self recognition which could allow for these thoughts to exist.
This is not to say the highest goal in 'life' is propagation as for one to propagate endlessly would violate the principles of entropy and as such this is completely disallowed. The idea of determinism is that all things are fated to occur or already predetermined, that all actions move towards an endpoint of some variation. Some people might say 'the logical course of action is no different than if it were not true' and this is correct as it would always be no different. My understanding is that what one accomplishes should always be in favor of that determinism, to not only coincide with it but to actively seek these things out as efficiently as one might be able to.
This idea is still very undeveloped, and I primarily wish to hear thoughts about it. I do not seek to argue over theology or history.
