The Philosophy and Ontological Implications of Obidi's Theory of Entropicity (ToE)

The Philosophy and Ontological Implications of Obidi's Theory of Entropicity (ToE)

The core philosophy of the Theory of Entropicity (ToE), as first formulated and further developed by John Onimisi Obidi, is that entropy is the fundamental, dynamic field underlying all of reality, and everything else in physics, including space, time, gravity, and quantum mechanics, are emergent consequences of its flow and dynamics. 

Key Philosophical Tenets
  • Entropy as Primary Ontology: ToE proposes that entropy is a fundamental, objectively real physical field, the "substrate of existence," rather than a statistical property.
  • Emergent Spacetime and Gravity: ToE suggests that spacetime is an emergent property of the dynamic entropic field, and gravity arises from entropic gradients, challenging the traditional view of gravity as a fundamental force or spacetime curvature.
  • Time's Arrow as Fundamental: The theory posits that the arrow of time is a fundamental aspect of reality, defined by the direction of irreversible entropy flow, rather than a statistical illusion.
  • Causality and the Universal Speed Limit: The speed of light is reinterpreted as the maximum rate of entropic field reorganization. The "No-Rush Theorem" provides a basis for causality and the universal speed limit by stating that all physical interactions take a finite time.
  • Observer-Independence: ToE emphasizes an objective reality governed by the entropic field, with physical effects like time dilation and length contraction viewed as real consequences of this field's constraints, not just observer-dependent measurements.
  • Unification: The ultimate aim is to unify fundamental physics principles, including thermodynamics, relativity, quantum mechanics, and information theory, under a single entropic framework. 
In essence, the Theory of Entropicity's (ToE's) philosophy declares that the universe is a continuously self-organizing system driven by irreversible entropy flow, from which all physical laws emerge.
