Going against that point of making statements with no explanation whatsoever, however - by logic, the universe cannot be executed by rules of science, because there was the universe long before anyone existed to even make up rules of earthbound science. By logic, therefore, rules of science will have been conformed to the workings of the universe and the earthbound sciences, which were only established by people in order for them to be able to understand that portion of the universe's workings which they are capable of observing.
The laws of science are a model of how the observable universe works; they were discovered, not invented. As far as we can tell, it works according to those principles, and others which we have yet to discover. There may be parts of the universe we can't observe which don't operate by those principles. But that possibility doesn't prove that the universe doesn't operate by scientific laws.
