The point I am trying to make (as I am sure you are wondering about right now) is this, that "perfection" (mathematically defined) is a human invention, nowhere found in nature, and superseeded mathematics. Therefore, mathematics is based on a human invention, and is therefore too a human invention.

How do you respond to Eugene Wigner's 1960 argument about the 'unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics' in physics?
