Will that always be true?

 
The laws of physics, particularly the second law of thermodynamics,
dictate that systems tend towards increased entropy (disorder); however
some truths (e.g., 2+2=4) are considered eternal and unchanging,
existing independently of the physical world.

 
Would they exist independent of homo sapiens? Where does the metaphysical
world exist?

Physics exists outside of humans as does the exactitude of math such that,
for the earth's massenergy, 4D spacetime inrushes at 11km/sec which exactly
counteracts the outward expanding 9.8m/s/s electrostatic molecular forces.

The apple doesn't drop. The apple stays still.
Everything else is moving.

The apple is like a boat in a river.

The boat sits still.
It's the river that moves.

Gravity is not a force.

The earth is expanding outward - to meet the apple.
The apple stayed still the whole time. Sigh.

Everything we "think" we know... is wrong.
Entropy is right though. So, we're doomed after all.
