We have lots of important definitions for intangible things.Thats a terrible comparison because the definition of a integer and a numeral are internal coherent and if ask anyone with any education on the subject. Now your definition is a supreme, and that falters unless you wonna say pagans never worshipped gods. You also may want to inform your fellow theists of this definition as they don't seem to understand.
A: “What is an integer?”
B: “One of the positive or negative numbers 1, 2, 3, etc., or zero.”
A: “That doesn’t answer my question.”
B: “Sure it does.”
A: “No, what is a number then?”
B: “A numeral or group of numerals.”
A: “That does not help!”
B: “Sure it does!”
A: “What’s a numeral?”
B: “A word, letter, symbol, or figure, etc., expressing a number.”
A: “Aha! You used the word number in your definition!”
B: “Yup, all definitions have a tautological nature to them.”
A: “Well I cannot see integers or touch them…”
B: “So?”
A: “Well then they cannot have a definition!”
B: “Why not?”
A: “I don’t know! I am just making this up as I go!”
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
