1. Do you believe God exists? Yes. However, I can also understand why other people don't believe it. The word, 'Yes', only would have sufficed. 2. If yes, then do you believe that mathematics can prove this true? You have to carefully understand what "proof" means. you also have to, caref...

If you cannot even explain the words that you actually use and say here, then I suggest you think more carefully about the choice of words you write here. By the way, "cardinal" just means "suitable to count the number of elements in a set". For example, five men in a group. Abs...

Ok you don't know what "topics" are. Hmm Once again, as soon as it was pointed out how you cannot back up and support your views nor beliefs here, you, again, attempt to deflect, and to deceive. Age not only doesn't know what topics are, Deflection, and deception, once again. As well as, ...

So, once again, I ask a couple of Truly very simple and easy questions, for clarification, and then receive a, 'You may want to read up on some thing', response. I assumed, almost surely incorrectly, that the continuum hypothesis is a well-known result. Once more we have another prime example of wh...

If you cannot even explain the words that you actually use and say here, then I suggest you think more carefully about the choice of words you write here. Oh and by the way, reading up on what you suggest here will never ever answer those very simple and straightforward questions I asked you above ...

Who the hell even cares?

1. Do you believe God exists?

2. If yes, then do you believe that mathematics can prove this true?

When you say, 'modern view', then 'when' did 'this view' come about, exactly, and who, besides you, has or holds 'this view', exactly? What do you mean by 'discovered' here? You may want to read up on nonstandard models of arithmetic. Victoria Gitman has written an excellent introduction: https://v...

This is all falsely-premised. Things true in the past, and things true now or in the future, are not superseded by this boyish novelty. You seem stoned on yourself. ...and what was true in the past for at least 1600 years - and not over yet - that the bible was the word of god; that Jesus died for ...

You think that the people living around you enjoy living in poverty and 3rd world conditions. I mean, if they want to stay in poverty, then don't complain about poverty. However, I suspect they'd probably welcome modern conveniences. I'm writing this from my mobile phone, while sitting in the ferry...

I agree with Age's point that if there is a "multiverse" then the totality of all multiverses is, by definition, the universe. Even a dumb "hick" like me isn't as stupid as you are. What a joke. Spend all your life studying abstractions of math and you can't even see what's in f...

What do you mean by words are equivalent? They both refer to "everything". Or does the multiverse not include everything? Ok you don't know what "topics" are. Hmm Once again, as soon as it was pointed out how you cannot back up and support your views nor beliefs here, you, again...

Maybe you don't know what a "topic" is. So when I say stuff like "multiverse topic", you don't know how to separate that from other stuff. If the words are equivalent, then what difference does it make? What do you mean by words are equivalent? What was meant is the definition o...

Usually, everything = multiverse. I see. What if I refer to everything as the "universe", am I wrong to call it that? Maybe you don't know what a "topic" is. So when I say stuff like "multiverse topic", you don't know how to separate that from other stuff. Once again, ...

In multiverse topics, "universe" doesn't mean absolutely everything. Which part of this escapes your understanding?

Then what do you call everything? Just "everything"?

Usually, everything = multiverse.

LOL 'usually'.

Not considering hypothetical extensions to the world we see, is the end of philosophy, but of course idiots like this one don't even understand this much I'm sure you're not an idiot. You're probably very intelligent. You just need to get terminology straight. And it's not your fault. So don't be h...
