The structure of the universe is evidence of God and mathematics.

Let me clarify my statement.

The structure of the universe can, we believe, be expressed mathematically (even though we don't know all that is in the universe nor have we discovered all the mathematics necessary to model what we know of it).

Take gravity for example.

Mathematically, gravity is well-understood through Newton’s equations for most everyday scenarios and Einstein’s equations for more extreme cases like black holes or the bending of light near stars. However, its underlying nature, especially at the quantum level, remains one of the biggest open questions in physics.

I forgot.

What was the original point here?

I believe at first it was gravity and Newton. Then God was introduced as one who is the El supremo of mathematics. In fact, he is above all beings; the architect of this entire mess we call humanity.

Mathematics are merely man’s way of computing in an attempt to explain everything.... even those things that are impossible to comprehend: the ecclesiastical cognizance.
