Essay Abstract
This essay challenges the notion that the universe developed according to the laws of physics. Instead, it is argued that in the beginning there were no laws of physics, rather the universe evolved from an initial condition into the present state via a process of (a geometrical) natural selection. The present laws of physics, the fundamental forces, constants and particles are those which 'survived' this process. Examples are given for the elementary charge, Planck mass and the electron mass. The Rydberg constant, accurate to 13 digits, is used to confirm the veracity of the results. It is this initial condition, and not the laws of physics, which constitutes the TOE. Furthermore, it may be possible to replicate (and not merely duplicate) our universe within a computer simulation if we are cognizant of this initial condition.
