I'm not suggesting that the laws aren't still valid, but we know much more about them. We live a rather Newtonian world but there are worlds that don't, the very very large and the very very small. All hell starts to break loose there. That's not something Newton either knew about or should have been expected to have accounted for.Actually, no they weren't. The Three laws stand today as they did then. We have learned more based upon the foundation they taught us. But we don't change the laws of motion to make boats larger and still float, do we?No, they went on, and were expanded upon as we learned more.Did the three laws of motion stop because Newton died?
The Founders never intended for the Constitution to live this long. Even they couldn't fully agree on what it meant. The fact that it is still in force was our choice, and would surprise the hell out them.
