Hurr durr you can't change the laws of physics durr hurr.

The laws of physics change may or may not change depending on cosmological factors we are only beginning to observe (EG fine-structure constant). 

More importantly, our understanding of those laws change continually and sometimes rapidly as they evolve in punctuated equilibria.

We don't have a grand unified theory, so the laws have to change if we are to accommodate one.

Did you sleep through the Copernican Revolution?

Where you out sick for the Bohr–Einstein debates?

Please fuck off with your smug absolutist Debbie Downer negativity. 

Innovation will proceed, regardless of your pitiable lack of imagination and optimism.


Can you explain this statement? I'm a little confused on what you mean by "the laws have to change in order to accommodate one". Laws can not change, however our interpretation of those laws may.


All you really needed to do it invoke quantum mechanics stating that anything is impossible, regardless of how improbable it may be. And if you subscribe to the many worlds theory (AKA many universe theory), whatever can happen, has already happened in an alternate reality.
