From the Book of Nature

1.  The laws of nature are absolute, and cannot be violated.  There is no crime in nature.

2.  The universe is anthropic, providing all the essentials for intelligent life; but it is also indifferent to that life.

3.  Life is the dance of water and carbon.

4.  Life depends on the Sun, and then killing and eating others.

5.  Nature has a vast "ghost range."  Most life is hidden, and we will never know everything.
