More, later, but I have a rant about "Division by Zero" somewhere. Really, really awful math. Does not at all appreciate the relationship between math and empiricism. Doesn't appreciate at all that there is a relationship.

But one of the things we are learning about that relationship is that it has limits- Pauli Exclusion Principle, Godel's Theorem, Halting Problem, etc... One of the particularly bothersome problems for me with having faith in the scientific method and the discoverability of the world is that we already know it's not the Alpha and the Omega. (heh, sorry) Though I have the same problem as a person of faith, only it's called: Why did God create an entropic universe?
