Well because of a magic wizard who made the laws of physics, of course.
So you don't have an answer?
I'm not even really sure what the question is! You're suggesting, without a shred of evidence, that the laws of physics might not be uniform. Why would they not be? Essentially, you're telling me something magical, and telling me I can't account for magic.
You're right; I can't account for magic. So I'll just go on thinking the laws of the universe are fixed and an emergent (or inherent) property of the nature of matter/energy interaction, rather than supposing that these laws had to be "set" for this particular set of properties, for some not-quite-explainable reason.
There's no accounting for magic. So now I have a counter-question for you: How do you account for werewolves? (See signature.)
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
