A law of nature is a discovery of a pattern, captured in words, pictures or mathematics.
- If I observe a pattern, I assume this pattern will repeat itself, when the same conditions appear, until proven otherwise
- When I observe a pattern, I am capable of turning this pattern into a graph, which can be turned into a mathematical formula
- The observation of two different phenomema, both caputured in mathematics, will lead to predictability as a result of their combined mathematics
- The relation among mind, mathematics and observation cannot be observed, it is derived from experience.
- Experience seems to happen in our conscience, which returns the ontological question: do mathematics and observations exist, other than or outside our experience? What is the relation among mind, mathematics and observation? How do they interfere? Is there a sequence? An interdependence?
- How does God relate to these?
- These questions are about the system of knowledge, not about the observed itselves.
- Why do laws of nature exist? If they do.
- Can the universe create new laws? When is any law ‘new’?
- All material and their possible combinations seem reach an end. Is the number of laws finite?
- Are therefor not all laws already (albeit hidden) present?
- Can laws disappear? How do we know?
- Are there fundamental and surface laws? Are not all our laws by observation? Thus surface laws?
- Why is there a moving continuum – apparently resulting in laws, instead of an unmoving vacuum?
- Why are we aware of these meta questions?
- Why do we suppose there are answers to such meta questions?
- Why are we not satisfied until we truly have an answer worth trusting?
