being that those are not mathmatical symbols they only prove your ignorance
Omigosh!! Can I just say OMIGOSH again? You just proved my famous quote. And you can't even spell mathematical!!!
To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant.
Those symbols are most certainly used in trigonometry ALL THE TIME. You want me to post up a hundred or so links? Now who has egg on their face??
Greek Alphabet (PRIME)
While the alpha and omega symbols are used in various mathematics, from what I can discern they have no set meaning.
So while, yes, you are correct that they are often mathematical symbols, they certainly do not indicate god.
I would imagine that god would need to be better defined before any kind of math would point to god's existence. Perhaps there could be something that points to a designer for life, but even then that wouldn't necessarily be god, and certainly wouldn't have to be god as you believe in it. I think the Christian concept of god is too outside the realm of human experience, too far beyond what we can see or know, to be explained through science. Perhaps that will change at some future point, but for now, IMO, it is the case.
I was actually just being clever when I responded Alpha and Omega, because these words are used to describe God in the Bible and they are used in math. They are commonly accepted mathematical symbols and have been so since the time of the Greeks. I never said they indicated God but Daws looks pretty foolish trying to call me ignorant when his own lack of exposure to math is evident by his post. That is all.
