We are only the temporary custodians of the particles which we are made of. They will go on to lead a future existence in the enormous universe that made them

Half the battle is just showing up.

If there really is a complete unified theory that governs everything, it presumably also determines your actions. But it does so in a way that is impossible to calculate for an organism that is as complicated as a human being. The reason we say that humans have free will is because we can't predict what they will do.

Disorder increases with time because we measure time in the direction in which disorder increases.

What I have done is to show that it is possible for the way the universe began to be determined by the laws of science. In that case, it would not be necessary to appeal to God to decide how the universe began. This doesn't prove that there is no God, only that God is not necessary.
