{{Topic|Question=Is the first law a ''tautology'', i.e. can it ''in principle'' be violated?|Topic Type=Descriptive|Description=As any law, #REDIRECT: [[Tautological Status of The First Law (Barseghyan-2015)|the first law]] attempts to forbid certain courses of action, for otherwise it would lack any empirical content and would be a tautology. However, it is not quite clear whether the law in its current formulation can be contradicted by any conceivable situation. So the question is whether the law is tautological or non-tautological, i.e. whether there are circumstances (perhaps the collapse of the society which contains the scientific community) under which the first law can ''in principle'' be violated?|Parent Topic=Mechanism of Scientific Inertia|Formulated Year=2016}}{{Acceptance Record|Community=Community:Scientonomy|Accepted From Era=CE|Accepted From Year=2016|Accepted From Month=January|Accepted From Day=1|Accepted From Approximate=Yes|Still Accepted=Yes|Accepted Until Approximate=No}}
