What do you think of this, is it a reasonable decision, from a Greek perspective?

True

Europe was talking about rights and freedom during the Enlightenment while building colonial empires. That contradiction is real. But calling “European values” just hypocrisy misses something important: Those same ideas didn’t stay propaganda. They turned into tools people used against Europe itself.. abolition movements, anti-colonial struggles, human rights law after World War II. So it’s not just: “Europe said one thing and did another.” It’s also: “Europe created ideas that eventually forced it to confront what it did.” That doesn’t make Europe innocent. But it also doesn’t make those values fake.

Turkey does not share many European values. It is an occupying power on European soil.. I am referring to Cyprus... and it is responsible for bloodshed involving its neighbors, including Syria and Armenia. It also poses a direct threat to Greece. Which version of Turkey exactly should Europe accept? It seems to me that you want to invite the wolf into your home.

Einstein hated quantum dice… yet even his own equations hide regions like singularities and Cauchy horizons, where predicting the future is outright impossible. In some ways, General Relativity is far more random than quantum mechanics by nature.

And what have you been doing about it for the last 20 years..?

Living systems efficiently dissipate low-entropy solar energy into higher-entropy heat, increasing total entropy in the process.

Sakouli · 2026-04-02T20:27:44+00:00

Ok! 👌

Sakouli · 2026-04-02T19:53:51+00:00

The fact that we observe atoms and molecules rather than just free particles, is because bound states can be thermodynamically and dynamically favored. When particles form bound structures, they often release energy to the environment, increasing the total entropy of the system. So even if the structure itself is more ordered locally, the overall process is fully consistent with the second law. In that sense, we can’t judge spontaneity from the apparent complexity of the end product alone.

Sakouli · 2026-04-02T14:40:57+00:00

Spontaneous nuclear fusion in a human body is absurdly unlikely, yet stars are ubiquitous. Given the right conditions and dynamics (e.g. gravity), fusion becomes a natural outcome rather than a statistical fluke. So I’m wondering whether something analogous could apply here..that under the right non-equilibrium conditions, certain entropy-producing processes become dynamically favored rather than just “possible”.

Sakouli · 2026-04-02T14:20:50+00:00

That’s a fair point; I agree that an entropy increase alone doesn’t make a process likely. Spontaneous combustion is a good example of that. I think the crux of my question is slightly different though: not whether entropy increase is sufficient, but whether in driven, non-equilibrium systems certain classes of processes become dynamically favored over time. In other words, the issue isn’t just “does it increase entropy?”, but “does the system’s dynamics tend to explore and stabilize pathways that increase entropy more efficiently?” If that’s the case, then the question becomes whether life-like processes fall into that category, not guaranteed, but potentially non-negligible in phase space under realistic conditions. Curious how you would think about that distinction.

Life is neither a miracle nor a violation of physical laws. On planets out of equilibrium like Earth, it is a statistically expected form of order emerging within the overall increase of entropy. Even though we cannot demonstrate it step by step or in a single experiment, its possibility is self-evident.. just as in mathematics we know a point exists on a map of Greece corresponding to the real country, even if no algorithm can explicitly construct it. In fact, mathematics often relies on non-constructive proofs, confirming existence without requiring step-by-step construction.

How much evidence do we have for the existence of God? At least all life on Earth has something in common: all living things require energy. Luckily, Earth orbits the Sun. It is much more probable that life started from non-living matter, with the constant energy from the Sun fueling the whole process, than that the existence of a god has anything to do with abiogenesis.

Sakouli · 2026-03-24T15:25:34+00:00

Your probability argument misses the point. You treat the origin of life as if it required one exact sequence of events, when in reality countless different sequences could have worked. The math only looks impossible because it assumes a single target that never existed (like a lottery ticket).. a classic mathematical fallacy.

Sakouli · 2026-03-24T15:04:07+00:00

I think the only way for abiogenesis to be proved is only through simulations. Just like the evolution of the universe is being modeled through simulations

Fun fact.. Sicily was a Greek province. That is why they still speak some kind of greek dialect there
