In reply to the discussion: Is the belief that the laws of physics were/can be suspended by a supernatural force... [View all]eomer
(3,845 posts)Whatever difference there is, large or small, between our description and the underlying laws we attempt to describe is not relevant and actually cannot be known.
And the question wasn't whether anyone believes that but rather whether believing it is rejection of science.
In my opinion to believe that may be nothing more than carelessness with definitions. I think it's necessary to clarify the semantics first and then see what remains.
If by "nature" we mean everything that exists, in any form and in any realm, and if by "law" we mean something that is of necessity and can never be violated, then there is by definition no such thing as a supernatural force. Any thing that can exert force is part of nature and the means by which it exerts force will, by definition, be covered in the laws. Sorry, God, this means you.
So I think that believing that is more of a rejection of logic than of science.
