But the laws of physics DO change. 1. Inflation? That involves moving mass faster than the speed of light. Something had to have changed. Even if the laws of physics do change they are not just a matter of opinion. In any case the Inflation if it did happen doesn't have to mean the laws of physics change any more then relativistic effects mean the laws of physics change. Maybe you mean the laws of physics as written in textbooks? No. Apparently you refer to th REAL laws of physics, the ones we will know once we know EVERYTHING. If that is possible; quantum mechanics casts doubt on that. Even if we never know them, or can never know them exactly, it doesn't mean they don't exist. But then you are simply an modern Platonist. You believe this world is really just the shadows cast by the real, ideal world. Not exactly but there are similarities. Esp. with the moral side of the argument rather then the physical. With the physical presumably this world is the real world and has real laws oh physics, they aren't shadows they are real even if we don't know them. Tim
