Abstract
At tines it looks like math and the Bible do not match at all in their use of numbers. But often religion provides some intuitive ideas and science and mathematics transform them into something very precise. We need to be independent thinkers, and that’s the only key to an ethical society. In this, mathematics and religion are in agreement. Moreover, deep study of mathematics and deep study of religion lead to exactly the same result, that we become more independent thinkers. [A]
