The Laws of Nature
Question
Are the laws of nature just a description of a state of affairs?
For example, the fact that the sun will rise tomorrow morning—is that based only on what has happened until now, with nothing fundamentally compelling that this will indeed continue?
Answer
It is reasonable to assume that there is something that causes these regularities. For example, the law of gravitation is carried out by the force of gravity.
