The workings of math indicates an intelligent observer. Not an intelligent designer.
If I'm not mistaken, mathematics is the only science where man determines the object - While other sciences already have objects and we just study them. Mathematics is a system created by man based on
observations.
---> To the OP - Arguments from incredulity and ignorance are very common among theists, and it's annoying as hell. I just wish they could recognize there are eminent flaws in not knowing something and reaching the conclusion that "god did it!".
If I am not mistaken,the mathematics' first principles are priori .Do you have any reason to believe why mathematics is essentially based on observation and not the other way around?
