I would like to see a people vs god case go up and when god is proven to be "not real" in a court of law, then maybe we can move on

You go, beez! Freedom and individuality! (And you know that doesn't mean I agree with you, I just support your stance - that's for others who may not know...)

and how many discoveries have I read about things that cannot be explained within the understanding of what we understand about those laws?? oh I don't know the rings of saturn comes to mind!!
so are you saying that the physiological effects that a medication one takes has nothing to do with natural laws? I would disagree since at the core of everything there is those laws at work! They are what binds elements together, as well as holds worlds within their orbits.
but to me when you speak of natural laws, you are speaking of certain energies and powers that were put into place at the beginning of time that formed the planets, gave them life, and well has the power to manage it all. There are scientific rules that if we could learn and understand that would not only explain why we are held onto the surface of this planet but also why I have a craving for whatever...we just don't know most of them.
And well we would be able to put those laws into mathematical equations.
X number of people would be too many.
Y number of women would be capable of producing z number of babies.
one women would contribute w amount of estrogen.
therefor when the number or women within the group is capable of producing more than x number of babies well each women would have to contribute enough estrogen for the population control mechanism to kick in.
if one can believe in a god and is willing to live by ancient codes of conduct that were laid down millenia ago, why is it so far fecthed to think that maybe that god had laid in place a way to ensure that man wouldn't overrun his creation and by doing so destroy everything?

Funny thing about freedom and individuality.
If you actually support that, then people will never agree completely. . . because. . . you know. . . . freedom and individuality.
What scares me is anyone who wishes, or tries to have everyone on the same page. Because then you'd have no freedom, and individuality would be gone.
What separates us from every other species is that some may look in the sky and see a cloud, while others see a unicorn playing a vigarous game of chess with a hippo wearing correctives lenses.
Have a great day, BH.
Just because science may not fully understand something doesn't mean that it violates natural laws though. AGAIN natural laws are mathematically precise. If it exists in the universe, it follows those laws.
My president believes in gods! That is the scariest thing in the world for me. not to leave out all of the other people who actually have access to world destroying arsenals who don't believe in the same god my president does.

You aren't being forced to adhere to them, nor is it required to even respect them. But she does have that freedom.
I don't understand why you would want to deny freedom.

You have no understanding of what a classical understanding of Natural Law is, and apparently the moderator objects to that being pointed out.
Not his first time, tellingly.

Oh I know exactly about this supposed classical understanding of Natural Law. What you are talking about is wrong and outdated though. That is like saying that the Table of Elements is wrong because the classical understanding of elements is that they were wind, earth, fire, and water.
Also, you should probably educate yourself as to what an ad hominem attack is, because that is what you've been doing since you started talking to me.
