CHAPTER

Is There a Difference Between Mathematics and Philosophy?

There's a precision to mathematics that philosophy doesn't have, but that precision gets you in trouble. I'm going to argue that that is a total product of the way you're conceptualizing the terms within mathematics. It's not in reality. And that mathematicians have come up with concepts that they haven't grounded in reality properly That allows them to go off in places that don't lead to truth. They don't need to truth. But I encourage you then, I encourage you to do one of these podcasts with one of our philosophers who know more about this stuff. Can you throw a name out or no? Yeah, I mean, I would talk to Greg so Mary.
