I think it is important to think about what's right and wrong in your world, because that gives you some incentive to change it. If you just sit back and say, "I have no control, things are how they are." it tends to lead to complacency. Also, I think that the universe really can be right or wrong, if you choose to see it that way. Really what it boils down to is, how do you see the space you inhabit?
-------------------- The story goes, or the way that I was told There was a king that always felt too high and then he fell too low And so he called all the wise men to the hall And begged them for a gift to end the rises and the falls But here’s the thing, they came back with a ring It was simple and was plainly unbefitting of a king Engraved in black, it had no front or back But there were words around the band that said Just know: This Too Shall Pass

When looking at things in the scope of the universe, what we do here on Earth isn't even a pimple on the ass of the entire universe. I think it is a bit egocentric to say things in the universe are going wrong or right just based on things going about on our planet.

The universe obeys physical laws. How can this be right or wrong?
Sure, we don't understand everything yet (if ever), and there might be something fundamentally wrong with how we understand the universe, but it's not like the universe is doing anything but obeying its own laws.

we got a google of years to debate, unless we don't make it off this damn planet within 5 billion years. OF which we're fucked anyways, and who knows which asteroid the size of uranus comes flyin our way like a bat outta hell. Then comes the dragon, oh yes that god damn dragon of fate fuckin black hole of which is the big asshole of space that not even light dare pass.
we're fucked, that's it.
so.... it's fate, not virtue of right or wrong.

Commander, sir, Geordi just came to me with an idea for mutiny. He says that old fart Picard does not know a plasma-port from a dilithium control matrix.
I tried to speak to Worf about the subject, as he is the Chief of Security, but he was too busy attempting to mate with an Altarian battle-axe.
What should I do, sir?

How exactly can entropy be "wrong"?

Silversoul said: There is nothing ultimately right or wrong about the universe itself. However, I believe that identifying with our physical reality is erroneous, and that we often go wrong in forgetting that we are spirit, not body.
I think its erronious to believe that you are not your body.
Spirit resides in everything, and our body is a vessel for many amazing organized cellular and electical processes... I think Spirit is a really clever scapegoat, even though i am often forced to classify myself as a spiritulist!
But what i can feel and what i can think and what i believe are all just as illusory as the last. We are body.

Because i said so and you're all just a figment of my immagination.
But serriously, the original gravitational singularity was god.
