And, as a Philosopher, I am quite happy with both Christianity and
Science/Maths.
After all, I've said it before but how does the old saw go? "If you define
religion as an irrational belief in the unprovable, then not only is Mathematics
a religion, it's the only one that can prove it."
And, seeing as Science has not (CAN not) prove anything true, that is a religion
by pretty much any definition. Okay, experience tells us it works, but how many
people say the same about religion ... ?
Cheers,

Don Knuth has said that he believes that God wants him to finish his book
series. I won't try to convince him that he is wrong. In addition to more
computer science than I will ever know, he has published biblical
commentary.

PS: Did you know that
Volume 4 is out? I stumbled across it in a Book Store and bought it without a
second thought. It's beutiful and reasonably priced. Now that you know to look
for it, you can no doubt find it on the Web.
