I doubt science will explain why the fundamental constants of this universe are the ones they are, or why are things just the way they are.


I doesn't matter, this is something science is supposed to accomplish!

no, I'm pretty certain there will be a wall into which we bump, seeing that things are this way only because they happened to be this way. Here, the "why" can't be answered.

I just don't see how it could be answered, if it could it would mean there's a mechanism at a more basic level behind it, and a mechanism behind the mechanism.. we'd have some type of infinite regression, but is it good then? Do we actually know something then?
