Multidimensional

Mathematics is multidimensional. Not in a matrix reality sort of way or merely a one-dimension measurement versus two-dimension, but rather in a philosophical way. Mathematics is the study of the infinite using the finite. It is the observation of the infinite through patterns, and the predictability of the future through equations. We aren't so concerned with the value of x as we are with the human mind's ability to discern the possible values of x. We learn about God, ourselves, and creation through the struggle of learning mathematics. That is what I mean by multidimensional.

It isn't easy. But it's worth it. 

These are things that I repeat to myself as I struggle to understand the people around me, the problems in our lives, the relationships we create, and the homework we assign. They are all connected. The ancient mathematicians and philosophers knew this. When they spoke of the law of causality, people nodded their heads. How could there be a pattern without a pattern maker? How could things move without a mover? Is there such a thing as a mover who didn't have something else causing him to move, i.e the unmoved mover? Is the value of a variable outside of the variable or part of its being? What if x could be any number? Is it more powerful if it has the ability to be any value or is it more powerful if it forces other values to change? 

 

Mathematics creates a safe place for us to explore these deep thoughts of men. Where else can you be wrong and not get hurt?
