Borrowing this title from a famous essay from Camille Paglia, I will simple explain that this "lawlessness" is actually a good thing.
Trying to push the physical universe into rational, scientific laws has been a problem for millennia.
While our culture tends to praise "scientific understanding" (and no one does this more than the scientists themselves) I am forced to wonder what has been lost since the time when mankind believed the physical world was shaped by unseen spiritual and metaphysical energies.
"Long ago the end was written in the stars and set into the Heavens with a shining Ray that held it safe within eternity and through all time as well." (FIP.Cl.Ep.2:5) Perhaps the stars do have something to teach us after all.
Perhaps this is ACIM's nod to astrology.
