Well isn't that special? I must have infinite knowledge to read the works of top physicists who are debating the subject, notice that they, who would be in the best position to know such a thing, say they don't know but have some pretty good ideas, and accept that at face value.

Obviously I don't believe in werewolves. But if a person came up to me (or to you) and suggested that werewolves were what kept the laws of physics from changing, I'd likely have a pretty hard time not simply laughing at their suggestion, unless they backed up that assertion with some pretty serious evidence. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

You continue to assert that the laws of physics may be variable, and must be fixed in place by the action of a Deity. I see no reason to suppose this assertion is true. As far as I can tell, the physicists are right when they demonstrate (via experiments at the high-speed particle colliders) that the properties of the universe, such as gravity, density, and electromagnetism, are emergent properties from the way in which subatomic particles interact with one another. Going back after the fact and imagining that some werewolf (or god) "fixed" those particules just so, so they would interact in this way, rather than some other hypothetical way, is irrelevant except in the context of those people who try to claim that we live in a world ordered by magic, and not the discovered laws of physics.

So you just know that some physicist says that no one knows and you accept it without question? Do these physicist possess infinite knowledge?

The only reason why their is order in the universe is because God keeps it in order. He made the universe and he keeps it in order don't by magic but because he posses infinite knowledge and power and wants it to still exist. You may not understand it but that doesn't make it magic.

You get extraordinary evidence every day but you choose not to accept it. The fact that there is life on the earth is extraordinary. The universe is vast, amazing and full of wonder and yet finely tuned. Our bodies have DNA which has a purpose and a reason to be there.  It is not evidence that you lack.
