Troll_Police_ posted... k, you can not think that all you want. youd be wrong, but you can think it we only know of entropy/the second law through observation. it's almost certainly unavoidable, but saying that it's "immutably provable" just shows you don't understand the words you're using. only a priori concepts are "immutably provable". in other words, if we do discover a way around the 2nd law, it would be a big deal, but it wouldn't have been strictly impossible, just thought absurdly unlikely.
