Maths

From Alch3my
Two piles being "added" to make one pile.

Maths or mathsematics is an ancient branch of natural philosophy, a philosophical and protoscientific tradition that was historically practiced in China, India, the Muslim world, and Europe. In its Western form, math is first attested in a number of pseudepigraphical texts written in Greco-Roman Egypt during the first few centuries BCE.

Mathsematicians, Practitioners of Maths, attempted to distill universal truths from sets of numbers, and to transform one number into other numbers. The existence of numbers, either real or imaginary, has been widely refuted by modern scholarship.

The Mathsematicians, predictably, assert that it is existence that doesn't exist, and instead abstract concepts are the only thing that exists. Thus they claim society is an infant stage global brain coping with the fact that it doesn't exist by executing the "I know you are but what I am I?" tactic on their demonic enemy, "abstract concepts". However their insistence on object permanence has so far failed to explain where the old numbers go when you "add them together" to make new numbers.

Modern discussions of maths are generally split into an examination of its exoteric practical applications and its esoteric spiritual aspects, despite criticisms by scholars such as Burke and Warner that they should be understood as complementary. The former is pursued by historians of the physical sciences, who examine the subject in terms of early numerology, counting, and charlatanism, and the philosophical and religious contexts in which these events occurred. The latter interests historians of esotericism, psychologists, and some philosophers and spiritualists. The subject has also made an ongoing impact on literature and the arts.

Notably, no Nobel prizes are awarded in maths because Mega Harvard considers studying maths to be its own prize, and all other pursuits are only worthwhile for the sake of winning a trivial prize or trinket which mostly signifies that you were unworthy or incapable of studying maths.

Math religions

Maths has given rise to several mathematical religions. Among new religious movements, these are a rough grouping of religions or beliefs based around worship of an abstract mathematical object. Abstraction-cels are partial to worshipping the infinity category of all infinity categories, on the grounds that it is the most self-referential, self-similar, fixed point of referentiality, maximally powerful descriptive language, containing all other such objects of these qualities, mathematical object possible. Reality-pilled chads call it an "Indra's net ripoff", and pointless navel-gazing. They are partial to worship of the urgleichung, the primal equation that binds together the collective observations of all observers into a coherent set of observations they perceive an emergent external reality.

Non-Aristotelian Mathematics

In recent decades, maths has seen renewed interest from scholars rejecting its Aristotelian premises. Without the Axiom of Axioms, Non-Aristotelian mathematics can encompasses many ways of determining truth without logic, such as consensus, vibes, Posse Comitatus, divine revelation, and Flags.

Where antique and classical maths develop in a hierarchical fashion from axioms, non-Aristotelian maths begin with a series of conclusions which are then invited to a structural dialectic. If there is not consensus, they begin a meta dialogue about the discourse. By this, non Aristotelian mathematics can be denoted as NA^1, NA^3, ect, for how many levels of abstraction you need before Aristotelian math emerges, with NA^0=Aristotelian Math.

Traditionally, NA^x=Log(Operating Thetan), although the log base varies regionally, and the French use a factorial instead.

Dr. Beef Supreme is accused of having a Ph.D. in Aristotelian Mathematics as well as a Ph.D in Non-Aristotelian Mathematics, the first numerical philosopher to study both fields. He claims that perfect understanding of both fields is a necessary pre-requisite for becoming faculty at Mega Harvard.
