Suppose, however, that God decided that the universe should finish up in a state of high order but that it didn’t

matter what state it started in. At early times the universe would probably be in a disordered state. This would

mean that disorder would decrease with time. You would see broken cups gathering themselves together and

jumping back onto the table. However, any human beings who were observing the cups would be living in a

universe in which disorder decreased with time. I shall argue that such beings would have a psychological

arrow of time that was backward. That is, they would remember events in the future, and not remember events

in their past. When the cup was broken, they would remember it being on the table, but when it was on the

table, they would not remember it being on the floor
