No. Since science relies on empirical evidence, not just conceits of maths.heracleitos wrote: ↑April 18th, 2022, 9:07 pmIt also means that science inherits the fundamental weaknesses of math.
It has the advantage of using maths as a tool of description. It the description does not work then science goes back to the drawing board.
It is also worth saying that no all science has much of a maths content, such as natural history, taxonomy..
Does it?
Math struggles with the very damaging problem that first-order logic generally fails to bind its non-logical symbols to their single, intended interpretation.
You've not really stated a problem as such. It is easy to say a problem is unsolvable when you have free hand with an undefined problem.
This problem is unsolvable.
What has any of this to do with the thread?
You've said this before. It did not make sense then, and repeating it does not help.
You are not addressing what I say.
If that is the cast then you need another thread.
Maths and Religion are not alternative to one another. They share basically nothing.
The real debating point is that one cannot reject religion on grounds of its foundationalist nature while -- when using science as an alternative -- being simultaneously tributary and existentially dependent on the foundationalism in mathematics.
No. Maths is a system of coherence. Religion can state and believe incompatible things. Religion can say 5+4=9 one day and 4+5= 45 another day. Jesus saves all, but some will burn in hell.
If religion is wrong for its blind first principles then math is also wrong for the same reason. In that case, how can science be a superior alternative, since science existentially depends on math?
God loves Eunuchs, Mat 19,12
God hates Eunuchs Deu 23,1
Does the Old Testament Law still apply?
YES Leviticus 23:14, 21, 31
NO, Rom.7:6
The bible cannot agree on the most simple arithmetic. How many generations cam before Moses, or after him, or how many generations from the exodus to Jesus.
Was Jesus silent before Pilate, whether or not he was adorned in a robe and of what colour; what Judas did with the silver; was Jesus the son of David.
There are 100s of basic contradiction; absurdities and fallacies. Same goes for Mormonism, Islam and Judaism - and probably the minority religions too.
If any of these things had been presented in a science paper, the entire religion would have been laughed all the way to the dump.
