The limitations of science
Hello Rabbi,
I wanted to know what the rabbi thought were the limitations of science? That it could never achieve anything beyond that.
For example, can science look “above the laws of nature” to understand why the laws of nature are this way and not otherwise?
“For example, the answer to the question of whether this or that law of nature could have been determined “by chance” is sometimes positive; today it is believed that the fact that the universe is made of matter and not antimatter is related to a coincidental “symmetry breaking” that occurred very shortly after the Big Bang. One of the surprising answers to the question of why there is life in the universe is that there may be many universes and that different laws of physics prevail in each of them, and our universe is, by chance, one of the universes in which the laws of physics allow for the existence of life.” (The quote is taken from an article by Prof. Yoram Kirsh)
Can science claim this or is it metaphysics?
