Can a natural law admit probability?

Question

or are laws only universal claims?

Answer 1

Yes. Quantum work deals exclusively in probability.

Answer 2

There is no logical contradiction in assuming so.

But, as far as actualities, this is both an ontological and epistemological question. For instance, quantum physics uses probability to describe it's "laws", but it is not agreed upon whether or not they are accurate descriptions of nature. Our mathematical tools could simply be to limited to give a more accurate description. So the actual laws may be completely fixed, but we can only describe them statistically.

Answer 3

Probability is a natural law expressed mathematically used for contingent conditions that evidence themselves in inconsistencies of universal identities or species. The number of imperfections or differences of universal facts of species or kinds is a probability of that factual difference for its species, for its kind. Most commonly the difference emerges of a use value question but that value is extended beyond the common practical usage in the scientific ideal that commands that we extend knowledge of things before the evidence of its necessity. Unfortunately the political implications of psychology makes the persona logical reason as a universal ideal questionable.

Answer 4

Seriously, why not?
