Objections & Defense
Objection
Non-Unitary Operations Violate Quantum Mechanics
"Quantum evolution is always unitary. Non-unitary operations are unphysical." Response: Unitary evolution describes closed systems.
Objection
Information Cannot Be Added, Only Transferred
"Information is conserved. You can't add information to a system." Response: Information conservation applies to closed systems.
Objection
This Sounds Like [Maxwell](https://www.oxfordreference.com/v
"You're proposing an intelligent agent that decreases entropy—but that was disproven." Response: [Maxwell](https://www.oxfordreference.com/view/10.1093/acref/maxwell)'s demon fails because demon +…
Collapse Analysis
Collapse Radius: None
If Law IX fails: - No mechanism for salvation exists - The gap between Laws VI/VIII and transformation becomes unbridgeable - Christianity's core claim (salvation by grace) has no physics - Self-effort becomes sufficient for moral transformation (contradicting experience) - The distinction between grace and works dissolves Breaks downstream: 00_AXIOMS/145_D19.10_Law-X-Definition
