Possibly because Newton's law was never actually a 'law' -- it's just a theory. I suppose it all depends on hard hard we try to fit something into a box.

Don't misunderstand my intent.
I was playing devil's advocate to Enchantra's comment that she did not believe in time. I was pointing out that we cannot function on this plane without a belief in it. Her statement is unbelievable.
And Newton's Laws are both measureable and repeatable. Not theory.
They just don't apply outside of the box.
That is part of the sobriety in my opinion. Putting things in their proper perspective. And then moving outside of the box.
