Dear Scholar
It has 2 parts
1. God is not a mathematician. He is a Geometrician . To be more accurate God is a Cosmimetrician. This author read Mario Livio's book" Is God a Mathematician".
Geometry is older than Mathematics
Geometry is the study of the Earth
The Earth is part of the Cosmos.
All Planets and Stars are spherical in shape
So, the Geometry of Planets( including the Earth) and Stars is Cosmometry.
Hence it is more apt to call the God as Cosmometrician.
Part 2
Who is God ?
Who is man? Let us ask!
He is basically made of elements like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen etc.,. so, his body is systematically organized physical entity.
Man has thus later acquired the mental faculty " thinking"
Cosmos is an organized physical entity just like the human body at micro-cosmic level.
We have the capacity of "thinking"
Similarly, Cosmos has an in born "God"
In other words as thinking in man so also God is in Cosmos.
to conclude: God is a COSMOMETRICIAN
I have studied Geometry as part of Mathematics at Matric level.
Yes , you are right.
It is a opinion reflecting the reality
Yes
God knows Pi value based on RADIUS of Circle and NOT of polygon as we are following 3.14159256...........
(14-root2)/4 = 3.14644660941.....is NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT my value
I would be a great FOOL if I claim this Cosmic Pi value as mine.
This number was there before it was DISCOVERED in March 1998.
I SAW the number
I did not create the number, SORRY please, you are mistaken me.
History shows that Man is the highest possible product evolved out of Matter. Man made God in his own image. Man created mathematics for his practical needs. If a God is supposed to have created everything, then who is God?
Yes, your doubt is right
we men are basically elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen etc. But because of systematic organization we obtained a mental faculty " thinking" . Do we see that. It runs the show
Similarly, at the macro-cosmic level we see planets, stars and are organized 100% perfect. and move in unimaginable accuracy .
So. to conclude : as " thinking " is in us , there is " GOD" in COSMOS.
OK my dear scholar
God is an emergent concept, namely, it is generated by fears and hoppes of human being and/or groups of human beings. Mathematics is another emergent body of concepts that help man to understand Nature. So might you change got by Less Action principle as premise? probably then will you help more to the development o science than to religions!
Dear Scholar
I am not for religion
In my view God is a scientific concept.
How ?
1. Man is well organized of basic elements like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen etc.
2. In him there is " thinking"
3. Similarly, Cosmos is well organized of Stars and Planets.
4.In Cosmos similar to our thinking there is God..
5. As thinking in man God is in Cosmos
OK
Dear all
there are so many interesting scientists' views about God. Perhaps we can help answer the question posed from reading some of these thoughts
Galileo: "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason and intellect has intended us to forego their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them. He would not require us to deny sense and reason in physical matters which are set before our eyes and minds by direct experience or necessary demonstrations."
Francis Bacon wrote:
"God never wrought miracle to convince atheism, because his ordinary works convince it. It is true, that a little philosophy inclineth man’s mind to atheism; but depth in philosophy bringeth men’s minds about to religion. For while the mind of man looketh upon second causes scattered, it may sometimes rest in them, and go no further; but when it beholdeth the chain of them, confederate and linked together, it must needs fly to Providence and Deity."
Charles Darwin wrote:
"I may say that the impossibility of conceiving that this grand and wondrous universe, with our conscious selves, arose through chance, seems to me the chief argument for the existence of God; but whether this is an argument of real value, I have never been able to decide. I am aware that if we admit a first cause, the mind still craves to know whence it came and how it arose. Nor can I overlook the difficulty from the immense amount of suffering through the world. I am, also, induced to defer to a certain extent to the judgment of the many able men who have fully believed in God; but here again I see how poor an argument this is. The safest conclusion seems to be that the whole subject is beyond the scope of man's intellect; but man can do his duty."
Maria Mitchell wrote:
"Scientific investigations, pushed on and on, will reveal new ways in which God works, and bring us deeper revelations of the wholly unknown."
From Marie Curie: (not so explicitly)
"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less."
Einstein wrote: (this is the one I like most)
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the Mysterious — the knowledge of the existence of something unfathomable to us, the manifestation of the most profound reason coupled with the most brilliant beauty. I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, or who has a will of the kind we experience in ourselves. I am satisfied with the mystery of life's eternity and with the awareness of — and glimpse into — the marvelous construction of the existing world together with the steadfast determination to comprehend a portion, be it ever so tiny, of the reason that manifests itself in nature. This is the basics of cosmic religiosity, and it appears to me that the most important function of art and science is to awaken this feeling among the receptive and keep it alive."
Carl Sagan:
"Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual."
Hawking said:
"Before we understood science, it was natural to believe that God created the universe, but now science offers a more convincing explanation."
From this statement, it seen that for Hawking, God was also a scientist, a cosmologist...
Finally, Francis Collins writes:
"I have found there is a wonderful harmony in the complementary truths of science and faith. The God of the Bible is also the God of the genome. God can be found in the cathedral or in the laboratory. By investigating God's majestic and awesome creation, science can actually be a means of worship."
From his view, not a mathematician, not a geometrician, not a cosmimetrician, but the creator of all sciences...
Dear Scholar
Yes.
Science is ALSO a means of WORSHIP
Thank you
Yes
GOD IS THE CREATOR OF ALL KNOWLEDGE
Thank you
Well, of the above contributions, I guess you try them all on and choose the one that fits you best and if there isn't one, invent your own!
