I agree. Disregarding God because of a lack of evidence for God is a very unscientific thing to do.

That math is consistent, it's comprehensible, it's logical; all which would be impossible in a state of flux

And then there's the whole thing about science not being able to justify itself

For the record, I'm only arguing with you so you can strengthen the argument.

But it might be possible that even with constant flux, you can have consistent math.

You could do this by equating math with pure nominalism.

Let's say I have three apples. The fact is I have three, but I could say I have drin, or kteri, or uliban. The word is in flux, but the reality remains the same.

Not sure where I'm going with this, actually.

The word is in flux through language barriers too. I say three, Philippe says trois, Franz says drei. The word is different, but the concept is always the same

@Luiz Tinoco I turned 21 this year. I'm really glad the date went well for you! And yeah, the internet can be a real crutch. You sort of lose sense of your body and your mind is absorbed in it so you forget your surroundings and how much time has gone by.

I'm at a blank as to how math could be nominal tbh. Could always test it out and see how they would respond

It's nominal because the concept is the same, no matter the name. Unless I'm getting nominalism wrong.

That wouldn't be nominalism

Nominalism would be that numbers are a social construct

And that we contrived them out of convenience maybe?

But that's easily disproven

Ah, I am getting nominalism wrong.

@Deleted User you're at a very good age. I could recommend you the same I recommend shrimples albeit for different reason. Find a group of like minded people, engage in their activities and be part of a sports team if you can. There are good days, and there are days in which we think too much. Those are the dangerous ones. Keep God with you and keep people close to you when they come. I'll add a prayer for you tonight as well :)

As 3+3 is 6 no matter what society is doing the math

Quantum mechanics proves that naturalism is false

When someone starts talking about quantum mechanics, I can only imagine a mega-fedora talking about le epic science xD while using big, smart, enlightened words that sound like le epic science

You should watch InspiringPhilosophy

He uses quantum physics in some of his apologetics

He's quite good

>If the universe was nothing but random cosmic flux, it would be impossible for a universal truth and for consistency to exist

I don't see how that follows

Konstantin has been typing for 3 hours now

I wonder what he has to say

Cosmic flux being nihilism, that there's no inherent meaning, everything was created randomly out of sheer chance and there's no order to the universe. More or less the idea that the universe is a million monkeys with typewriters that eventually wrote Shakespeare. They're denying that Logos exists as a universal, but as above, so below. Reality is the metaphysical world (takes primacy) plus the natural world (a projection of the former); natural things are projections of spiritual phenomena, the symbols being more real than their physical representation. Like in Plato's cave, we see shadows on the wall and if we just walk outside, we'll see that the shadows are created by real things and the shadows are just a reflection of reality, not reality itself. If everything we knew was entirely random and in flux, it would be safe to assume that the universe is random. But that's not what we observe. We can find clear examples of consistency and coherency in nature, such as math, which would be impossible in a state of flux

If somebody says "all geese are white," all you have to do is find one non-white goose to prove them wrong

if you think i'm reading all of that

Then don't lol

i'm just kidding, my guy

good analysis

Have you looked into Quantum Mechanics? Consistency and coherency are nowhere to be found.

I love my school library

I found so many books on gothic architecture, but I ran out of time so I took two

Noice

Really wouldn't mind if Gothic architecture came back in style.

I got so bored I thought about designing a house

A Gothic house?
