These statements above and below were very carefully written by a retired professional-physics-teacher who served on the National Council of the American Association of Physics Teachers for over a dozen years. The FIRST-LAW-OF-THERMODYNAMICS describes the thoroughly and repeatedly proven Scientific-Fact that within each occasion of a PROCESS as described above --- there is NO NET CHANGE IN THE TOTAL-AMOUNT-OF-ENERGY within the finite-volume-of-space-time. The SECOND-LAW-OF-THERMODYNAMICS describes the thoroughly and repeatedly proven Scientific-Fact that within each occasion of a PROCESS as described above --- there is a NET-DECREASE in the OVERALL-CONCENTRATION-OF-ENERGY within the Finite-Amount-of-Energy which was involved within the finite-volume-of-space-time; i.e., there is a NET-INCREASE in ENTROPY which is the scientific-measure of the overall amount of DIS-ORDER = CHAOS = CONFUSION = GARBAGE, etc. within the isolated-finite-volume-of-space-time which was talked-about. All human efforts within God's Space-Ship-Earth are included in the above described processes. Some human efforts entail faster rates of NET-DECREASE in the OVERALL-CONCENTRATION-OF-ENERGY within the Finite-Amount- of-Energy involved in the human efforts. Meanwhile radiant energy from the sun and other stars enters God's Space-Ship-Earth while less concentrated infrared energy leaves God's Finite-Space-Ship-Earth and disperses into the rest of God's-Finite-Cosmos --- which is continuing to expand after the God's-Big-Bang-Creation-Event. The survival of human life within God's-Finite-Space-Ship- Earth depends upon humans' impact upon the evolving ENTROPY-CONCENTRATION within God's-Finite-Space-Ship- Earth. Some human activities entail slower ENTROPY- CONCENTRATION-RATES than do others. Other human activities entail faster ENTROPY- CONCENTRATION-RATES than do others. Wise-and-Prudent humans will learn to distinguish between the ENTROPY-CONCENTRATION-RATES of their various activities; and to chose to engage in those characterized by the slower ENTROPY-CONCENTRATION-RATES --- wherein there are GRACIOUS-MITIGATIONS-OF-ENTROPY-INCREASES DUE TO: ALIENATION VIOLENCE COERCION DOMINATION EXPLOSIONS GUN-FIRE BOMBINGS FIRES FUEL-WASTE GREED HOARDING CONCENTRATIONS POVERTY SICKNESS DISEASE CONFUSION ARROGANCE HUBRIS ANGER REVENGE REJECTIONS ISOLATIONS ESTRANGEMENTS EXCOMMUNICATIONS Each of the words in the above chart --- suggest inhumane activities which lead to net-increases in ENTROPY within God's-Finite-Space-Ship-Earth --- thereby threatening the destruction of all humane life within God's-Finite-Space-Ship-Earth --- which cannot with integrity tolerate excessive rates of use of fossil fuels and other forms of concentrated-energy found in God's- Finite-Space-Ship-Earth. The above pertain equally to both Objective-and- Reflexive human activities --- insofar as they lead to net-increases and/or net-decreases in the ENTROPY within God's-Finite-Space-Ship-Earth --- via Global-Warming, Rising-Oceans and other Climate-Changes related to Destructive-and-Constructive processes. The above pertain equally to the intimate relationships of True-Lovers and to the destructive activities of militarists in wars which have been declared to have been Just-Wars by Domineering-Religious-Leaders.
