Then please explain the specifics of the steps with which one would apply the scientific method to any one of them.
Or consider the Laws of Thermodynamics. These are considered facts, fundamental, even, are they not?
This is actually a very common misunderstanding. Scientific Laws are able to be broken. They are not designed to be absolute. They are merely the resulting conclusion of repeated observation. As such, a law is limited in applicability to circumstances resembling those already observed, and may be found false when extrapolated.
Really it's no different than any other part of Science. If an observation is made that 'breaks' the previous conclusion then that previous conclusion is scrapped and a new, more accurate conclusion is formed.

Please provide the case which falsifies one of them, not something general, some specific theory that is supported by observational data and can be tested.
I'm not sure you are able to accept such evidence. From your writing it seems as though you believe "observation" means "Being there to witness it first hand". Scientific observation doesn't require subjective observation because objective observation is far more accurate.
"But if you are wanting very specific things, perhaps the "Superluminal Inflation" of the early universe after the Big Bang, which breaks all the rules of physics, had no observer, is not possible to experiment upon and is based upon entirely circumstantial and possibly misapplied evidence. "

Could you clarify what you mean by "observational data" just so we know we're on the same page?

I am not stuck on repeat, I am repeating because you cant hear
You made it clear that suicide was damnation as you understood, in a faith you dont accept
You say I dont grasp the language, think, just think
You said you have been told suicide was condemned and repeated what you heard
There is no evidence, Catholic, Orthodox, whatever you decide to rely on, no biblical truth to damnation for those who take their own lives

At this point, I am comfortable sitting on the fence. I don't know if there is a higher power/creator, but I will not say there isn't one either.
We will just have to wait and see.
