Seems like a small correction to this is in order, to read thus :

"God created the universe, and then man invented mathematics to describe
his currently-in-vogue perception of the universe."

OR...

God created the Universe, and then tremendously
advanced corporeal beings, who had invented math
long, long ago, created mankind (by intervening with
primate, and perhaps even mammalian, evolution)
and taught us all about that invention (of math) just
a little at a time?

So the "Only True Religion" is faith-based upon the
existence of advanced outworlders. I'm not entirely
certain i believe it, however it does make more sense
to me than any other manmade religion on Earth.

There's still that original "God" thing, though. Even
the CBB model is imbibed by this with it's esoteric
"SCO".

happy holidays and...
starry starry nights!

Well, the reality of the Overpressure is pretty obvious and self-evident
(unless one can come up with an alternate explanation of what powers the
collapse of massive stars down to BHs and powers the inflows that light
up the quasars).
It's the *source* and origin of the SCO that remains
esoteric. It's one of the fully-acknowledged 'flat Earth' issues that
come with any expanded paradigm. Here, those issues include questions of
Ultimate Origin... like the Source of the SCO, what lies at the 'ends'
of eternity and infinity, what is the exact mechanism of nonlocality? of
hyperfluidity? These are simply the 'givens' that come with the new
territory. There is always a new horizon. If we're gonna throw in the
towel just because we can't see over the next horizon yet, we might as
well hang it up and abandon our innate human quest to explore.
