The Natural Role Of Mathematics In The Sciences: How Maharishi's Vedic Science Answers The Question Of The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Mathematics In The Sciences, Catherine A. Gorini
The Natural Role Of Mathematics In The Sciences: How Maharishi's Vedic Science Answers The Question Of The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Mathematics In The Sciences, Catherine A. Gorini
Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal
Mathematicians and scientists have for a long time tried to understand why mathematics, a subjective creation of the human intellect, is so effective in the sciences, which study the objective, physical world. Satisfactory reasons have not been found because there has not been a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between the subjective and the objective aspects of life. In this paper we will see that Maharishi’s Vedic Science, by explaining the link between the subjective realm where mathematics is located and the objective world that science examines, can resolve this problem in a natural way.

Mathematics Memory Verses: Weekly Devotionals For Math Class, Mark Colgan
Mathematics Memory Verses: Weekly Devotionals For Math Class, Mark Colgan
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
Each Monday during the semester I start class with a short devotional on a verse that relates in some way to mathematics. After three weeks I choose one of the three at random for students to write out on their quiz for a possible bonus point. This encourages students to practice memorizing Scripture and it gives us the opportunity to discuss biblical principles that relate to some of the topics we are studying in the course.
I would like to share some of the Bible verses and weekly devotionals I have used in my mathematics classes. These can be organized …
Parables For Mathematicians: With Good News For Curved Beings, Ashley Reiter Ahlin
Parables For Mathematicians: With Good News For Curved Beings, Ashley Reiter Ahlin
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
Because we often lack the language for talking about such deep matters, the things of God can be hard to understand or talk about. The things that we do see and know were made by the same God of whom we speak. Thus, they are reflections of His nature, purposes, and ways and can help us to think and take about Him. This presentation expresses a parable using the language of math.

Theism & Mathematical Realism, John Byl
Theism & Mathematical Realism, John Byl
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
This paper examines connections between theism and mathematical realism. Mathematical realism, which offers the best account of mathematics, strongly supports theism. Theism, in turn, supports mathematical realism. Theism readily explains the intricate relations between mathematics, matter, and mind. The attributes of the biblical God provide justification for classical mathematics.
What Mathematical Paradoxes Teach Us About Paradoxes In Christianity, Paul Bialek
What Mathematical Paradoxes Teach Us About Paradoxes In Christianity, Paul Bialek
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
In Christian academic circles, we talk about the integration of our faith and learning. That is, we seek to discover and develop connections between our Christian faith and our particular discipline. This is notoriously difficult when the discipline is mathematics. I have found that asking myself these three questions has helped me to integrate my Christian faith with mathematics, although they could be applied to any discipline: (1) How does the fact that I am a Christian affect the way I view mathematics? (2) How does the fact that I am a mathematician affect the way I view Christianity? (3) …
Why Natural Selection Can't Design Anything, William A. Dembski
Why Natural Selection Can't Design Anything, William A. Dembski
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
In The Fifth Miracle Paul Davies suggests that any laws capable of explaining the origin of life must be radically different from scientific laws known to date? The problem, as he sees it, with currently known scientific laws, like the laws of chemistry and physics, is that they cannot explain the key feature of life that needs to be explained. That feature is specified complexity. Life is both complex and specified. The basic institution here is straightforward. Davies rightly notes, laws (that is, necessities of nature) can explain specification but not complexity. Once life (or more generally some self-replicator) …

Mathematics As Worship, David J. Stucki
Mathematics As Worship, David J. Stucki
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
In keeping with the mission of this organization to explore the relationship of faith to our discipline, I would like to take this opportunity to investigate the relationship, if any, between mathematics and worship. There have been throughout history, at least since Pythagoras, connections made between the mathematical and the theological. Many of these such efforts have followed the Pythagorean cult in deifying number, thus making mathematics the object of worship. Othes have effectively situated theology in subservience to mathematical reason. However, these are not the only alternatives.
Once we admit the possibility of a connection between mathematics and theology, …
On Periodic Points On Maps Of Trees And The Expansive Property, Fred Worth
On Periodic Points On Maps Of Trees And The Expansive Property, Fred Worth
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
In this paper, we consider the expansive property (A homeomorphism, f, of a metric space, X, onto itself is called expansive if there is a positive number, ε, such that if x and y are distinct points of X, then there exists an integer, n = n(x,y), such that d(f n(x), f n(y)) > ε. It should be noted that n may be negative.) and how it relates to shift homeomorphisms of a tree with a single, surjective bonding map. We also consider some results regarding the periodicity of points in self-maps of trees.
Thml: Theological Markup Language For The Christian Classics Ethereal Library, Harry Plantinga
Thml: Theological Markup Language For The Christian Classics Ethereal Library, Harry Plantinga
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
This document describes the Theological Markup Language (ThML), an XML markup language for theological texts. ThML was developed for use in the Christian Classics Ethereal Library (CCEL), but it is hoped that the language will serve as a royalty-free format for theological texts in other applications. Key design goals are that the language should be (1) rich enough to represent information needed for digital libraries and for theological study involving multiple, related texts, including cross-reference, synchronization, indexing, and scripture references, (2) based on XML and usable with World Wide Web tools, (3) automatically convertible to other common formats, and (4) …
Gravitational Acceleration In Hades, Andrew Simoson
Gravitational Acceleration In Hades, Andrew Simoson
ACMS Conference Proceedings 2001
Does acceleration due to gravity increase or decrease upon descending from Earth’s surface? The answer—as we show—depends on one’s model for Earth’s density. For our Earth, gravity increases before it collapses to zero at Earth center.
