consider the fact that much of the supporting math behind physics, way, way back - began with assumptions.... self-defined variables we threw into equations while trying to make the equations work
ultimately, the laws of physics - while mostly agreeable to the world at large - are built on theories, which were built, at some juncture, on assumptions.
we keep on thinking we'll find the smallest sub-atomic particle, for example, by accelerating larger particles at each other....
What do they see? the same thing over and over again - but many of the ingenious folks in the scientific community are so close to the trees they dont see the forest.
the answer isn't in a finite-sized, 'smallest particle' --- it is IN THE PATTERN. the fact that we can break down shit further and further, or look further and further into the cosmos, and see the same relationships.
"Seek and ye shall find".... there was so much confirmation bias based on our physical experience and what 'great minds' before us taught us, that we fail to see that it's not that we're not finding the right answers -- we're asking the wrong questions.
What limited our understanding in the past was technology - what limits it now is technology - technology breeds more technology, and the evolution of technology becomes exponential --- which is why subject matter from like the late 1800s and early 1900s was disproved in the late 1900s... and why subject matter I learned in the 90s has been disproven in less than 20 years, and why shit we discovered a decade ago is being re-evaluated already lol.
The providence of "microcosms" and "macrocosms", and their intimate (often fractal) relationship IS evident in all sciences, and supported by many faiths and philosophies, ancient and modern alike.
so alas, i say to you:
FUCK THE LAWS OF PHYSICS!!!
lol, for real though - it's relevance is only as meaningful as our desire to be 'ruled' by those 'laws'.
the laws of physics which are most likely to withstand the test of time will be the ones that are observed in other subject matters as well -- the real 'make-up' of the universe is seen most clearly when our (fallible) SCIENCE aligns with our (fallible) FAITHS/beliefs and the two combine to ring truth
within the individual beholding them. :)
