I Need Philosophers and Scientists to Coordinate in Creating a New Religion

This idea is still in its infancy, but I think I've come up with the ultimate feel-good religion. It has one simple premise, that everything we do in life results in a net increase in Universal entropy.

Before you laugh this idea off, it is fully supported by scientific inquiry, thus far, which puts it head and shoulders above supernaturally based religions.

Next, everyone can contribute. In fact, everyone is already contributing!

The ultimate goal is subject to further study, so there is room for multiple denominations (Big Bang leading to Heat Death vs Bang/Crunch alternation vs Multiverse Theory, etc).

We can incorporate this into current Humanist Ethical frameworks, or start our own from scratch, if anyone is so inclined.

I am open to constructive suggestions, of course.

Your Fellow Minister in Entropy,

Eric
