This isn’t “my” law, it is simply (as far as I know) that I have been the first person to recognise it, and I believe that the reason that I had the “eyes to see” was that I hadn’t been trained to accept whatever I was told by any “authority”. I had been schooled in no scientific or religious (or any other) orthodoxy. I know there have been others who have felt uncomfortable about the entropy law, as have there been others making suggestions regarding diversity. But no-one else has tied those two together. I have been dropping hints here and there over the years, to see if anyone would take me up on it. Once I almost got it published as an article in the Ecologist Magazine, but my mother died suddenly the next day so I simply couldn’t manage to follow through at that time.
The implications that then come from that “Universal Law” (I won’t say merely theory as I am convinced from the 45 or more years I have “researched” this and in so many different “fields” it is worthy of the term “Law”) are the most useful part of this “revelation” as they affect our entire understanding of “What’s it all about” and allow us to be aware of exactly what we / others are doing and why (not), and quite often what are the root causes of mistakes, possibly made with good intentions. (Although personally the jury is out on that as far as I am concerned, thanks to Edge Lane).
Further implications
So, now to go through the implications of this Law, and in no particular order:
In an ever diversifying universe (diversifying of its own “volition”) there can necessarily be no external control. Control there is, and it comes from within and from between (intra and inter) via the finite limitations of the entities involved (say a tree or a horse or a mountain, a tribe, or a solar system) and the context within which it is situated, namely, as ever, from the intrinsic relationships. And thus all things are “joined up”. These relationships have taken as long to evolve as the universe itself, and ever since they have evolved they have worked, unlike most of our bright ideas. There can be therefore neither punishment nor reward (in the external sense). There is no “judgement day”. The idea is immature, may be useful as in intermediate device for controlling a “child”, until it develops a conscience, but now our species is obliged to “grow up” (or else).
An example of the intrinsic relationships doing the “control” and therefore requiring no punishment or reward (from an external source) would be that one can’t reward or punish a mother, surely the most important occupation, (picture a mother lion or elephant, to side step a load of prejudices and stereotypes and complications), to make her be a good one. The control comes from within, and it got there in part genetically, part of which is thanks to hormones (initial bonding due to oxytocin, nothing quite like a 71.5 hr labour to give one a really good dose of that) in mammalian species, and for all I know other species.
