> Language's purpose is purely for communication. What need would a supreme being have for communication as crude as math, instead of communicating by direct experience?-My direct experiences in life are not as elegant as the precise formulation in math, which explain so much. Math is far beyond the ordinary experiences of everyday reality. It describes reality, but seems to have a world of its own.
