"Math is what man created to explain Nature. Math is an abstract not a concrete and as such merely describes natural processes. It is not a proof of God rather a proof that man can create system by which he explains his universe."

Well, that's neat and profound and all, but tell me, when mathematical instruction sets are physically processed in the real world, is that abstract or concrete?

abstract as math is a created concept nature knows no math. Your logical disconnect is that you think math is some sort of universal code rather than a system Humans created to explain how the universe works. This is why as with science Mathematical expressions which explain natural process change as our understanding of those processes increase. As such Math is a explanatory abstract. Nature doesnt process information mathematically we as humans explain these processes in mathematical terms.
