Hi Mark,
>>>My answer to back up my claim is this....(and this is a hard one so I'll do my best).....I propose that mathematics is a formalized system of logic. I know I already said this but here is where my answer plays in.>Something is logical if and only if that which it asserts can lead to no self-contradicting assertion. Simple as that...>Particles interacted in some frenzy that occured some fifteen billion years ago. They interacted according to a system of strict rules and behaved in a mathematicaly consistant manner. The outcome was a cloud of dense particles gravitating and expanding at the same time bonding and breaking. This is due to the forces involved (strong, weak, electromagnetic, gravitational, any as of yet undiscovered forces). As the cloud cooled different particles merged, forces behaved differently. (All mathematicaly explainable according to physicists). Then spectacular things started to happen. |
