Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the 2nd law of thermodynamics stipulates that entropy can only increase or stay the same over time, then how can cyclic cosmology be correct?
The first big bang or should I say the consequences already violates the 2nd law; the formation of galaxies should not have happened. Not a single star should have form and the same goes for life (a process which decreases the entropy), it violates the 2nd. Ergo thermodynamics are made up bullshit for theorists to wank over.
