The shapes of the clouds are all that's important.

Between order and entropy what is, at least in my mind, a truism is that anything that ever will happen is exactly what was going to happen as dominoed from the big-bang itself. Hence, nothing that ever has or will happen comes of our choices when none of our thought process are necessarily our own - we're in a sense all, each and every one of us, passthrough entities.

That said, there is something that can also be said about sentient animals such as ourselves. We do crave efficiency and order, more than we crave chaos, and that said we will continue to have more order and less chaos if left to our own devices. Why? We constantly seek lower energy levels, hence greater efficiency of motion. Its something you can find in thermodynamic reaction, in chemical reaction, and just as readily its found as a governing reality in human behavior. Yes, we do have erratic people but, when you examine what makes them tick, the problem is most often that - by their own wiring - the current order can't accommodate them, or they've been in a traumatic sequence of events which shifted their brain chemistry considerably where they have to do wild and seemingly absurd things at times to keep or possibly reestablish internal equilibrium. Seeking internal equilibrium is a quest for order in and of itself even if it doesn't create order as an external reality.
