Actually I suspect that this is just another case of an atheist not understanding what is meant by objective in the ontological sense. However I don’t see how a number in the other sense can be subjective either.
Feel free to enlighten me about what objective means in the ontological sense.
It means that it’s nature is based on something outside of and independent of the subject. Whereas subjective would be based on and dependent of the subject such as tastes or feelings. It’s like the sci-fi shows, where they always use numbers to communicate with ET, because numbers are a universal and not dependent on us.
