Mathematical laws apply all around the universe.

This means that mathematics is almost an


absolute truth.
Ô. The laws of mathematics 6  absolute truth.

2. I will look at this through an objective point of view. However, I


do believe in god.

3. I will try to empathize with all sides of the argument.

4. The theist god : The one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler
of the universe.

5. Atheism: the doctrine or belief that there is no god.

6. Pantheist God: God is the universe ( which consists ofenergy)


Three Boxes Game:
ð chance of success when sticking is 33%, while it is 66% when not
sticking.

ðWhy?

ð most probably (2/3) you will pick wrong box first.

ðThis means that I will have to show you the remaining wrong box,
leaving the right box

ðSo it͛s better to change


ð All sources come from a biased view, whether atheist, theist, or pantheist.

ð Mathematical sources are reliable as they have been proven.

ð However, If Mathematics is NOT absolute truth then it may be wrong.


ðu uations should work regardless of how they͛re arranged. When
rearranging this we get:

ð This is mathematically impossible as dividing by infinity is very close to 0


but never actually is 0

ð This idea also involves probability

ð That if there is an event which is statistically improbable, say the exact alignment
of the universe to allow life on uarth, then the designer itself has to be just at least
or even more improbable.

ðIt is an argument designed to counter the intelligent design one but I see this
exact argument being used against itself.

ðIf it is so statically improbable this actually strengthens the case of God.


ðGod is the universe. unergy makes up the universe, so god is also energy.

ðRearrange it:

ðThe flaw: we don͛t really understand the concept of energy yet.


A more detailed definition of absolute truth: ±ixed, invariable, unalterable facts. ±or
example, it is a fixed, invariable, unalterable fact that there are absolutely no s uare
circles and there are absolutely no round s uares.

ð There are some elements in Mathematics which are absolute truth, e.g. there is no
such thing as a s uare shaped circle, but not all.

ðMathematical numbers progress in the same way e.g. Ô,2,3 all go up by one but this
progression does not exist in nature.

ðIf maths is absolute truth then it should be able to put a value on infinity which is a
big discussion point in modern physics. By being able to know what infinity is it will
help to disprove the notion of a god.
ðAs humans we try to rationalise things and create patterns.

ðIf there is a god he must lie out of our rationale so using maths and science will
not get us far in this matter unless it is proven that there definitely is NOT a god.

ð Mathematics tries to understand the universe and its processes. But, the theist
god is not on the same level, physically, as the universe. So, theists using math's
to prove god are slightly contradicting themselves.
ðShould atheists have to prove their point or theists or the other way around?

ðAn atheists argument: the orbiting teacup.

ðTheists strength in numbers and older beliefs.


ð Most Mathematical evidence moves to the existence of god.

ð Mathematics mostly proves points instead of disproving.

ðAtheists have been able to diminish some theist arguments through the theory of
evolution.

ðWe are still at an age where we still have major breakthroughs to make in both
understanding of our universe and how to apply mathematics to understand it.

ðAs theists are larger in number they will always get the majority vote and Atheists
won͛t have more power until this changes: Only 2%of world population was Atheist
in 2000.
