In the universe, there is perfect balance, justice, and equilibrium.

If there is temporary disequilibrium, then there are uncomfortable, even volcanic consequences until equilibrium is restored. Examples:

1. The atom bomb is one example. Unstable elements, catastrophic explosion. Then equilibrium is restored.
2. The prosperity and societal morality of the 1940s and early 1950's was forged by suffering of the Great Depression and WW2.
3. The horrors of the Nazi and Communists regimes were countered by the unprecedented numbers of Catholic priests and nuns and Churches.
4. Muscular imbalance in the body. If you use you bench press, but ignore your back, you will invariably experience upper body pain. You have to balance with pull-ups to feel good again.
5. Behavior of kids. The first child is the by-the-book organized bookish firstborn. So the second has to be an athletic or social animal. Sometimes a wild child. The result is an overall balance.
6. Mating. Opposites attract. Eye-color opposites, personality opposites, physical size opposites. All producing equilibrium. If there isn't some opposite, there will be problems.
7. Magnetic fields.
8 Swinging political pendulum
9. Climate patterns. First cold cycle, then heat cycle.

From a purely logical standpoint from physics, it only makes sense there is an afterlife because of equilibrium.. In the physical world, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. So why would life circumstances and behavior be different? Sure, the actions of people result in some earthly consequences, but rarely in equal measure. Take the young man who was born into fabulous wealth, spent lavishly, was promiscuous, and treated others poorly. Let's say he died a painless death at a young age. Where is the justice there? According to physical laws, it has to be balanced elsewhere, and that can only be in the afterlife. Likewise, I knew a young woman who was lovely and compassionate, spent her life helping others, and didn't have much money. In her 50s, she was struck with cancer, then right after her recovery was diagnosed with ALS, one of the most agonizing slow deaths of all. Where is the equlibrium for her? Every imbalance has to be resolved. Only one place it can be: in the afterlife.


This is one of many pieces of evidence of Heaven and Hell, to me. Dispute this argument if you can.




 
The second law of thermodynamics suggests otherwise if we want to be all theoretical about it.

Then there is the First Law of Thermodynamics which makes the case.

Actually the Second Law makes the case as well. Mixing is actually equilibrium. It's why large populations are more uniform in size and appearance.

Stoicism argues that life is a temporary disturbance from the equilibrium of death.

You don't make an argument, you make a wish for a universe you would prefer.
 
Sure. Tell me how I'm wrong. Give counterexamples.
Your premise, Every imbalance has to be resolved, is absurd. If I eat a tomato is there an imbalance that gets resolved? Is there a tomato heaven?

Every imbalance is resolved or else there is a consequence of that imbalance. Example: Deadlifting without doing hip flexor exercises. Your consequence is a back that is easily thrown out.

The afterlife is for one's personal conduct.

One could suppose that the imbalance of every life is cancelled out at death. Pain, fear, hate, misery, etc., is gone for the individual when death occurs. Which is not to say there isn't an afterlife; karma suggests that for a given spirit or soul if such exists, the imbalance in one life gets resolved in a future life.
 
Dumb question.
What is dumb is making up your own personal version of a law of physics. The law of equilibrium can refer to either the state of balance in chemical reactions or the state of balance in physical systems, each with its own set of principles and applications.

There are no physical Laws of Equilibrium in metaphysical spirituality.

Equilibrium exists in all realms, not just the physical. Every act has a consequence. Not every act is resolved it this life.
 
I wish that were true but I don't believe it is.
What about dark energy? It didn’t exist in the realm we call the universe and then it did. Was it in equilibrium when it didn’t exist in the realm of our universe?

Not a clue. Is there anything we know less about?

While I Believe in the afterlife because I have experienced it. Your argument is an incorrect application of equilibrium. The afterlife isnt the opposite of life its continuation of life. You would be more accurate if you used laws of thermodynamics but that falls short as well.
We have tons of anecdotal evidence because we have to use self report of NDEs that make a strong case for the afterlife. What hasnt been proven yet is that after death memory and emotion continue
