So I think I understand this argument and it makes sense to me (at the moment). To me the (to paraphrase), "increasing as we move away from the big bang" stuff seems to lead right to the idea that the expansion of the universe is what we perceive as the passing of time, but I never hear any one knowledgeable say that. Is there some obvious reason that it's not that succinct?
- Nevermark 4y agoNo, the expansion of the universe isn’t the same thing as increasing disorder of particles. It is possible that that the original expansion, inflation, and even dark energy are also driven by thermodynamics, but we just don’t know that.
- mftb 4y agoI see, I was conflating the expansion with disorder. Thanks.
