There are no laws to mathematics, other than determinism. Positional names are simply the most reductive grammar of measurement with the lowest possible error. All constant relations can be expressed in positional (constant) names. Not because of any particular magic, but because anything that is measurable between states must be deterministic. Math is a great language precisely because it’s the absolutely dumbest one possible, and as such least open to errors.

All human progress in the sciences has required us to change our presumptions (models, premises) from intention (complexity) to entropy (parsimony), just as in economics from planning to self organization, and in sentience from the magical to the tediously boring neural. Every advance we have made only eradicates intention (design), and replaces it with self organization (entropy). And in religion from gods to deism to ’the mystery(wonder) of the universe’’s production of everything out of near randomness (self organization).

Gods do not exist except as a system (language) of measurement, just as numbers do not exist except as a system (language) of measurement.

Gods are useful as a system (language) of measurment (meaning a hyperbolic and conflationary) just as math is useful as a system (language) of measurement (concise and deflationary).

The question isn’t whether these things exist (persist) independent of us (they don’t) but whether we can distinguish between these things as useful language constructs of our own design, vs existential.
