The second law of thermodynamics
Entropy is a measure of the randomness of the universe. Over time, order is consumed by disorder as existence strives for a state of complete diversity. Unfortunately the second law of thermodynamics doesn't bode well for Christian conservatives. As much as they struggle against the diversification of society their ideology will inevitably fail. Any attempt to limit progression by embracing the past will only slow what is natural. The Christian conservative agenda has as much chance of molding the future of America as I do reversing the rotation of the Earth. They may slow things down a little but in the end life will march forward, not back.

Judging by this story, christian conservatism may be waning even in some of its oldest surviving institutions!
Entropy is held in check by laws, Mochi. Gravity, for example, is one of them. Everything in the universe points to order, not disorder. I'm not sure what you mean by "diversification" of society, but are you speaking of anarchy? This would be the ultimate result of entropy would it not? If this is the case, then wouldn't Christian conservatives be the only ones who stand in the way of complete societal decay and break down?
Just thoughts...
