Is decay a direction? Most coceptions of divinity include the ideas of creation and destruction as working together. Destruction is often seen as a negative force, combatted by something else -- but it's also often seen as a part of the divine plan, even the divine will. Now, if a universe must have good and evil, and the creator is all-knowing and all creating, wouldn't that destructive force (entropy) be an aspect of the divine? You're arguing that it's the sole will of the divine -- there's nothing else there. Bacteria, and any life form excepting inherently sterile ones (such as mules) exemplify this duality. Death, even the large scale death of the universe isn't unique. Dolphins die, bacteria die. They also procreate. Perhaps the universe doesn't procreate, i'm not really sure. But you could argue that in creating itself then tending towards entropy it's experiencing on a massive scale what each life form experiences in a much shorter time.
