You are all over the map. Man discovered the concepts of math. Math is not unique to man. Any intelligent being can discover the concepts of math. Mathematical truths exist independent of any creature. Mathematical truths exist in and of themselves.It does not imply that at all. The physics have not been discovered that describe what happens when Friedmann's solution to Einstein's field equations yield infinite densities. Once the physics are discovered it can be modeled using mathematical equations.You said math was discovered not created by humans.Neither because you keep misstating what I write. Try using my exact quote to make your points and you will discover your error.So now you say we have to create the math that is needed to understand these things. But earlier you said mathematics wasn't created by humans but was "discovered" because it already existed before humans did.It is neither. Our understanding of the physics is limited. Because our understanding of the physics is incomplete, the equations - or math - is limited. Therefore, the equations - or math - do not presently exist to describe what happens when the field equations yield infinite densities.I disagree. The laws of nature don't break down. Our understanding of the laws of nature is limited and breaks down. The math does not exist to properly model what happens at the singularity because our understanding of the physics is incomplete when the size of the universe is infinitesimally small.That's not technically correct. The mathematics break down.what happens when the laws of nature break down as they do in black holes?
A distinction without a difference
So you said thing like math are discovered so that mathematics must exist outside the human brain now you say that math to describe what happens in black holes doesn't exist.
So which is it?
OR
Maybe the minds of human beings are incapable of the intellectual processes needed to understand what happens in the instances where math fails.
The math is not failing. The math is showing the limitation or boundary of our understanding of the physics.
So which is it?
That means mathematics exist apart from humans and the human brain.
Then you say that no math exists to describe what happens in black holes but you imply that it must exist because humans did not create mathematics but rather discovered it.
So how can you say that the math to describe black holes doesn't exist?
Of course it does
Either man invented the concepts of mathematics or man didn't.
You said man discovered them that means that mathematics exist whether or not humans exist.
Just as man did not invent that water consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Man discovered that water consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
So then how can you say the math to describe black holes doesn't exist?
