Okay
I don't agree with the ending. This universe, in another form, has happened many times over. We can say, relative to us, that it is the higher-consciousness of God. So you words fit correctly. What does happen is just that. What comes about comes about through what has been before and is ever replenishing itself.
The first ''mess'' is the divine death of the saviour. This has happened many times over as there are more than one reality. Once we move into this realm of change, entropy is seen. Thankyou for the thoughts, they fit well, though I doubt you meant it as such.
The reason it happens here is because it has happened before.
I think all fine tuning arguments committ the same fallacy (of composition).the same fallacy many cosmological arguments suffer from. In a nutshell: it is logically unwarranted to apply things valid within a certain context to the context itself.
Consider a tipical teleological argument:
1) things do not assemble magically to create a car, therefore a car, even if I never saw one before, clearly points toward a conscious designer.
Now, the essential premise is:
1a) things do not assemble magically (or randomly, or by chance) to form a car.
And this is a valid premise. The point is that is not generalizable. It is an empirical evidence based on the fact that a set of atoms, or basic constituents, do not assemble, usually, autonomously to form a car.
But this is also a thermodynamcal statement. Since there are many many more (macroscospically indistinguishable) ways a set of atoms can evolve into something different than a car, then it is obvious that we should not expect a car, without introducing eternal factors.
This is the second principle in action. In an insulated system, things evolve naturally toward macroscopically indistinguishable states (viole's mess) because they are the vast majority of states a system can autonomously evolve to. It is a statistical principle ruling the evolution of many basic constituents, like gas. It does not work, for instance, with boxes containing only one constituent or atom, primeval or not.
But the second principle is also only applicable in a context that is not in thermal equilibrium. In a system in thermal equilibrium things can only evolve toward the same mess or towards less mess, for the current mess is already maximal and cannot be topped.
Ergo, premise 1a makes sense only in contexts not in therml equilibrium. That is in contexts like our Universe. Applying it to the context itself is unwarranted, unless the Unverse itself is contained in an encompassing Universe which is not in thermal equlibrium. But that would just delegate the problem to the encompassing Universe, for which there is no evidence, by the way.
