Algebra especially is a religion. You must have faith that you can add, subtract, multiply and divide LETTERS!

I suppose not, if you use "scientific" methods to determine something is real.
Can't quote any math figures because that would be using the thing to define itself ... a big no-no.
Can't say "well, there is one or two of those" because again that's using the thing to define itself ... a no-no.
Can't quote a book on it as that would be anecdotal and not factual.
Never met a number or a fraction, so it can't be real.
Can't accept witnesses testifying ... after all, they don't allow the testimony of the 11 people who proclaimed Jesus is God. So that's out.
Guess it's not real.

No man, math is imaginary! Have you ever tried to find the square route of (-1). Try to find it, and if you can't ask a professor in Math and listen to what he would tell you. I am not joking or lying!

Er, yes. It is a man-made conceptual study used to describe characteristics of the world we live in. Math is, in fact, real.

It is a useful tool that is used to explain many things. The ratio's and laws that govern our universe are real and measurable.

It depends on what your definition of the word "is" is. Just ask Bill Clinton.

Trick question. What about imaginary numbers?

Theoretically, yes.

No its part of the "vast right-wing conspiracy."
Sorry, but this is a highly dumb-a** question.
