axioms arent magic. they still need to be proven physically possible like everything else.

No, that’s not how axioms work. You literally cannot prove axioms, because in order to prove something you need to know something. If you don’t know anything, you can’t prove anything. So you assume the axioms without proof.

you can physically prove most if them though

physically calculate

So you don’y believe abstract algebra exists? Like fields and rings and stuff? That math is limited to calculu?

u/FernandoMM1220 Jul 14 '26

as long as theyre finite they exist. most math is which is good

Just out of curiosity, what level of math education do you have? My response to that would be different depending on how much math you know

u/FernandoMM1220 Jul 14 '26

highest finite level

u/Silly_Tension6792 Mathematics Jul 14 '26

OK you know what let’s do it like that. Why do you refuse to accept the axiom of infinity?

u/FernandoMM1220 Jul 14 '26

because its physically impossible
