The laws of physics, particularly the second law of thermodynamics, dictate
that systems tend towards increased entropy (disorder); however some truths
(e.g., 2+2=4) are considered eternal and unchanging, existing independently
of the physical world.
 

Physicists tend to disagree on things, as that's where job security comes from :-)

I think we could agree on some "properties" we observed at local distances.
It's a stretch to say we know what is at the "edge" of the Universe.

But I'm flying out there next week, and I'll check.
