There’s no natural reason to think that the laws of the universe aren’t what they are simply due to a natural process. While no one has credibly made a testable hypothesis on what this process would be as of yet. However I don’t have reason to believe this would be impossible to test.
- tsegratis 5y agoWhatever system made the laws of the universe, it is presumably extremely consistent and uniform (otherwise how give rise to such a uniform universe) So yes, eminently testable, no disagreement with you on that And yet at the same time, the simulation hypothesis is not really disprovable, and infact, is quite reasonable Which presents the problem (if simulation is not disprovable) that there may be many valid explanations that are untestable So in that sense, I would say impossible to test But still I'm surprised you say there are no testable hypotheses!
- lumost 5y agoThere are testable hypothesis, but not about the extremely early universe as of yet. The energy requirements put it outside the realm of terrestrial experiments - and as of yet no one has a good simulacra of the universe prior to the big bang. While there are some theoretical white hole approaches to justify the big bang etc. These are not as of yet testable.
