Directions to Solve
Laws of nature are not commands but statements of acts. The use of the word "law" in this context is rather unfortunate. It would be better to speak of uniformities in nature. This would do away with the elementary fallacy that a law implies a law giver. If a piece of matter does not obey a law of nature it is punished. On the contrary, we say that the law has been incorrectly started.

A is surely a wrong answer. The answer should be B--a law implies a law giver-- and it does not hold true for nature.

As per the author, Because of law nature can't make uniformity in all. If some one right about his opinion but it is against the law of nature is punished. So this perfectly explain the theme rigidity and harshness.

I think A is the correct answer because, the author states that the laws of nature are NOT commands,command is too harsh a word.
Yes we call them "Laws", but still they are just statements of acts done by nature itself.
