A Simple Question...or 3!

[Kousbroek]

Actually, all laws of physics break as soon as you move out of their field of reference.

Since all laws of physics govern the whole Universe - at least as far as we can tell (how's that for arrogance?) - you would have to step outside to be out of their frame of reference. Even then that's not a complete guarantee - we have no way of knowing what, if anything can even exist beyond the Universe or even if such a concept even makes sense. It may be that, like Truman Burbank's life in a dome, there may be another even larger one outside. Or nothing whatsoever. Whatever the case, the only way to entertain such notions as moving beyond physics is mathematically or philosophically; unless these approaches can map onto anything in the reality on the level at which we relate to the Universe, which by definition they can't, it's little more than masturbation. Entertaining, definitely, but hardly world-altering.

Very well put Stimbo, but i'm afraid it's like explaining the color blue to a blind person ....
