I do not share the belief that the universe keeps score

Every field of endeavor, from physics to music, notes that there is order in the universe. To what origin you subscribe that order -- if any -- is the province of metaphysics. But that the order exists is axiomatic and provable. That is as far as I'll venture out onto that philosophical limb.

Fair enough. But that has nothing to do with whether or not said order is "imbalanced" by interpersonal conflict, nor does it prove that people flinging their elbows/fists/feet about, in whatever style, will increase or decrease said order.

If you believe it does, then you're dealing in religion/metaphysics. I wish you good luck, good fun, good life, etc..
