The problem with cyclical time is that you get to a certain time again!  Is it that same t the second time around?  if t1 is a certain time, and t2 is the same point the second time around, does Entropy (t1) = Entropy (t2)?

NIce play on words on the second bit, but the first bit I am not so sure of.

"Everything seeks out the lowest energy state" would tell me that the Big Bang is not a viable event. How then do we account for anything at a high energy state?

This supposition would seem to place energy and gravity into discretely separate domains. I am not sure that squares with common cosmological theory. My brain hurts.
