The production of a summary description of nature in the form of such laws is the fundamental aim of science. Laws of nature are distinct from [[law|the law]], either [[religious law|religious]] or civil, and should not be confused with the concept of [[natural law]].
Moreover, "law of nature" and "proposition (or formula) expressing a law of nature" are often used synonymously. However, taken strictly, there is a difference between law-propositions (or formulas), which, qua being formulations of laws, are semiotic entities, and laws (of nature), which are non-semiotic entities. Laws of nature exist independently of their physical formulations.
