God is Law and the Law is handed down BY God...
What amuses me is that Evolutionist crazy people want to play intelligent designer when it comes to Social “fairness” ie. Marxism...
“Mathematics is the study of the relationships and properties of numbers”
I disagree. I assert that Mathematics is the study of God’s laws and vocabulary of this universe.
I take it the author has never heard of non-abelian groups.
According to Webster, mathematics is ... “the group of sciences (including arithmetic, geometry, algebra, calculus, etc,) dealing with quantities, magnitudes, and forms, and their relationships, attributes, etc. by the use of numbers and symbols.”
In a word, yes.
I understand the author's point, but he spoils his argument by starting with that dopey question.
"Evolutionary Mathematics" is an oxymoron. Evolution is basically not compatible with modern mathematics and/or probability theory.
Mathematics is a good deal bigger than the study of numbers, their relationships and properties. Geometry prior to Descartes’s introduction of coordinates was remarkably number-free, and even when one uses numbers in geometry, it is not the numbers one is studying, but the geometric objects, using numbers as a tool. Then there are all the various branches of formal logic in which numbers don’t show up at all; topology, where they can make an appearance, but again just as tools for studying something else; various branches of abstract algebra like group theory, ring theory and field theory (different use of the word than in physics), where things built out of numbers turn out to give examples, but where the thing studied is more general;. . . (you get the idea).
The relationships formed of matter and energy from the creation event, were essentially fixed from that time forward till today, and on into the future universal expansion. From our point of view they require some cohesiveness of description. Thus the number.
It works. As a tool, like a hammer. Unless one has some better idea.
