Mathman said:But the larger question, how is it possible that (mere) mathematical models have any utility at all in describing the real world? -- that's one of the biggies.
As Einstein put it, "The most unintelligible thing about the universe is that it is intelligible."
Something sooooo true to me, yet I am not as inthralled but facinated, I have an incredible respect for Math and it realistic consistency. But it is just not fun. I am glad it is for some people because I don't know where the word would be without it. SO IMO, Math dosen't necessary rule but it is a part of all that we know and understaning of it is vital as well as helpful.
BTW, I am not kidding.
