One i haven’t got my head around yet is how the Big Bang and Big Crunch theories work together, according to the second law of thermodynamics the total amount of entropy in an enclosed system (which the universe is) can only remain constant or increase never decrease.

So, if if entropy increases in a big bang Big Crunch scenario where does it come from ? & if entropy remains constant what happens to matter if it crosses the event horizon of a black hole ? It must come out? Hawkins radiation ?
