Law--"Every physical, observable effect has a physical, observable
cause preceding it and the cause and effect are related by the laws of
interaction of physics"

is this law correct? Is there any proof? Has this law been published?
Can somebody disprove this?

***{The nature of a thing lies in the sum and arrangement of its parts.
Every thing that exists and every phenomenon that occurs has a
recipe--an exclusive list of things which, if assembled in a particular
way by nature or by man, will produce that thing or phenomenon. The
thing or phenomenon is the effect, and the act of assembly (bringing
together in the required way those specific components and no others) is
the cause. Hence we can say that everything that happens has its cause.
Observers are irrelevant, except in cases where they are elements of the
effect or the cause.

The proof of the law of causality, that everything which happens has its
cause, lies in the principle of continuity, that no thing may come into
existence out of nothing or vanish into nothing. For if that is true,
then the nature of the effect is entirely determined by the carrying out
of its recipe--i.e., by the bringing together in the required way of the
required components and no others.

If, for example, I bring together the components of an automobile, and
nothing else, and assemble them in the specific way required by the
recipe for an automobile, then when I am done I should have an
automobile. If I do not, it can only be because one or more of the
required components that I brought together vanished into nothing, or
because one or more new components that were not required came into
existence out of nothing. If nothing got there except the stuff I
brought in, and nothing left except the stuff I took out, and if the
only forces of assembly were exerted by me, then the only possible
result will be an automobile.

If, in short, the principle of continuity is true, then the law of
causality is true.

And that's all there is to that story.
