Actually, the Law of Conservation of Matter/Energy are misnomers.

Can I have sources on those? Because it doesn't really make sense that energy waves move faster than light, seeing as how energy is generally a form of electromagnetic radiation, which largely includes light.

After a short Google search on the whole pulsar thing, I've only found that it transmits information faster than the speed of light, which is basically based on the collapsing wavelength principle (you take two entangled particles and change one, the other changes faster than the speed of light). However, that isn't due to the information actually travelling faster than the speed of light, but due to pre-existing conditions within both particles that allows one to instantaneously react when another changes its "spin" (more info in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuvK-od647c).

And honestly, that whole "Laws of Physics only apply to us" thing is philosophy. Not science. The thing about the laws of physics is that they are universal. Force always equals mass times acceleration. Gravity always pulls things towards a gravitational center. Et cetera. To assume the laws of physics only apply to us is to assume there is something special about us or our condition that makes us different from everything else, which is baseless and unproven.

As for the gravity thing, sources please. Because that is totally untrue, from what I know. For example, the recently discovered gravitational waves, created something like two billion years ago (I don't remember the exact number, but it was something in the billions), took its proper two billion years to get here, because it was two billion light years away, and it takes light two billion years to get from the black hole collision that created it to here. If gravity moved faster than light, it wouldn't take that long (more info here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gw-i_VKd6Wo).

I'm no astrophysicist though, so I could be wrong.
