The beauty of mathematics is that it reveals hidden morphisms, or "simliar structure". As an example, I can say the following, with equal validity:
"This author argues that carpenters don't even know what a tool is therefore not know what they are talking about. This author argues that carpenters don't even know what a tool is therefore not know what they are talking about. He claims they don't know what tools are such as hammers. ARE tools real are they imaginary do they exist--if they exist where does a hammer exist in a toolchest. So do you agree that they not know what they are talking about since they cannot even tell you what a tool is--if it exist etc. If you disagree then pleas tell us what a tool is."
You're absolutely right, I cannot tell you precisely what is a tool and what is not. All I can say is that tools are handy to have, and hammers do the job of driving nails very well. It's better than most other things I can think of.

Numbers are names given to values of things in the universe that we can count. Numbers were made by people so they must know what they are talking about.

Mathematicians do too know what a number is, they know it is a symbol used to describe quantities in life. I argue that you do not know how to spell, and that even if you did, you do not know how to reason. Also, I wouldn't dream of going to your site, it is probably full of viruses, Trojan horses and other junk.

Well,given the world's population, there are bound to be a few whacky people around. The problem is that there will be a few idiots that believe him.

Back again, Jane A? It wasn't worth reading the first time. It still isn't.
