The secular world would like to think that mathematics is the product of the human mind and these same people struggle greatly with the fact that maths is the only language by which the universe can be understood. There is a universal maths behind every aspect to the physical universe that screams to us “we are dealing with a sublime mathematician”.
Consider the following: All life is biology. all biology is physiology. All physiology is chemistry. All chemistry is physics. All physics is math (Dr Stephen Marquardt) The whole universe can be reduced to mathematical formulas, with no “apparent” reason why this should be so.
Seth Lloyd was the first person to design a functioning quantum computer. He said that ” the history of the universe is, in effect, a huge and ongoing quantum computation”.
That the universe is a comprehensive mathematical miracle has not been lost on other great scientists either. Sir Fred Hoyle said that “a super intellect has monkeyed with the physics”. While professor Paul Davies continues the awe with “It seems as though somebody has fine-stunned natures numbers to make the universe. The impression of design is overwhelming.”
What are they talking about. Well, here are some examples:
The gravitational force is fine tuned to within one hundred millionth. If it was any larger or smaller the universe would not exist.
The ratio between the gravitational force and the electromagnetic force is fine tuned to ten to the fortieth. Any variation on this exquisite tuning would collapse the universe.
The strength of the electromagnetic interaction within the atom is governed by a constant that is 1/137.035999070. Richard Feynman said of this remarkable number that “It’s one of the greatest damn mysteries of physics. A magic number that comes to us with no understanding by man. You might say ‘the hand of God’ wrote that number and we don’t know how he pushed his pencil”.
I could go on for a long time on this topic, but I trust you get my point. God loves maths!!!
God bless
