This text critically examines J. P. Těrlecký's attempt to derive the principle of causality from the second law of thermodynamics. Těrlecký posits that causality follows the direction of increasing entropy, which provides time with its orientation. However, the author argues that the evolution of life on Earth, spanning approximately 1.5 billion years, moves in the opposite direction—toward decreasing entropy. Living organisms exhibit a distinct, irreversible development governed by their own laws, which contradicts the thermodynamic trend toward disorder. This discrepancy poses a fundamental philosophical choice: either the law of entropy is universally applicable to the entire universe, with life being a mere temporary exception, or the law applies only under specific conditions. In the latter case, the entropy law might be a subset of a more general cosmic law, or there may exist a plurality of laws that are not fully integrated into a single unified framework. The text thus challenges a reductionist understanding of causality based solely on thermodynamics and emphasizes the unique nature of biological development.
