personally I have long studied nature, science, and philosophy (I suppose one might call me an intellectual natural philosopher) and I would call this union natural and primordial chaos. I do mean chaos in the sense of a lack of order although that is by no means inapplicable either. rather I mean that throughout virtually all of my study their have been only a very few things that remain as constant as anything can in an ever changing universe. one of those things is change and when change is omnipresent (or as omnipresent as anything can be) what else does one call it but chaos. besides this there is the fact of the universes ultimate fact to offer in support. there are three main predictions on that front. either the universe's expansion will slow, stabilize, and perhaps reverse itself. if that happens everything in this universe will be compressed into an ever smaller space and eventually our universe will end in a state not unlike the state it was in prior to the big bang. the second prediction says that the expansion of the universe might eventually stop and the universe will continue from then on at a larger but ultimately stable size for eternity (critical density is what cosmologists call this state). the last is that the expansion of the universe will continue accelerating and the universe will grow faster as time passes. if this happens all the matter, energy, and what have you will remain but will become ever less dense as it fills as ever expanding space. eventually there will be so little energy left and so much space that quantum interactions will be all but impossible. this is what's called the Big Freeze scenario.
