"Beyond theory there might be a 'law' of nature."
There might be, but there isn't.
Oh, I don't know. I seem to recall that there is something called the 'Law of Gravity". Did that start out as a theory?
And, before you tell me that that is a physical law and it doesn't matter or compare, I would suggest to you that gravity has a lot to do with how nature developed in our world. It would be an integral of 'evolution theory' if it was really factual.

If you mean Newton's Law of Gravity, not only is it still a theory, it's been shown to be incomplete. Relativity has superseded it. So much for it being a *law*.

The correct name is the "THEORY of Gravitation." It's still a theory.

There is philosophy, mathematics, and science. Each has a different method of determination.
