Who created the laws of nature?

Most people, if not everyone, would agree that nature is rational and logical. That it is at least partly comprehensible. That it is governed by certain laws of nature. That is, in fact, an assumption in science.

What people differ on is: from where did these laws come? Atheists believe that these laws just are. That there is no reason, intelligence, meaning, intention behind these laws of nature.

Theists, on the other hand, believe God is behind these laws of nature.

Both positions involve faith.
