1 pint plus one cup does equal three cups, but that doesn't make 1+1=3 true, any more than it disproves 1+1=2.
There is no deeper concept, you have no point.
I think I made my point crystal clear in my post that immediately precedes yours.
I have a very valid point that many other scientists are actually considering.
In fact, Lee Smolin wrote an entire book about it. I think it's called "The Trouble with Physics"
So not only is my point valid, but it's also recognized by prominent scientists. Lee Smolin is only one of them. Others have voiced this same concern as well.
It a quite valid point. May or may not turn out to be true.
Quantum Mechanics suggests that it will turn out to be true though.
In fact, for mathematics to survive below the Planck level Quantum Mechanics would basically need to fail.
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
