Yes, zmjezhd, I agree, like language math has a function. Yet math, like language, is fuzzy in outline mainly because in our Universe there are no two identical entities to add...or subtract...or muliply, even if that difference is only its unique position in time/space.
And I know of no religion that believes God is a bearded or not bearded guy sitting or standing in a sky or not sky Heaven.
Except symbolically.
