the currently known examples. Since our viewpoint is that censorship possibly does not hold in classical relativity, we would like to ask next if naked singularities could actually occur in nature, and if they do, what would they look like.

Are there Naked Singularities in Nature?
========================================

Maybe No ...
------------

Even if general relativity were to generically admit naked singularity solutions, it does not follow that these singularities actually occur in nature. It could be that stars simply do not possess the initial conditions necessary for formation of naked singularities.

Furthermore, there could actually be some principle, over and above general relativity, which forbids naked singularities. This would be in the same spirit in which the advanced wave solutions of electrodynamics are forbidden. We have recently pursued a line of thought wherein the second law of thermodynamics prohibits naked singularities [@bar].

Our idea can be deduced from Penrose’s work on the second law of thermodynamics [@pen]. As explained by Penrose, a fundamental understanding of the second law can be had only if we understand why the initial entropy of the Universe is so low, compared to the maximal value it could have had. The matter, including radiation, was itself
