Are you saying you don't know what the word "proof" means in mathematics?

I'm saying you can't prove the truth of whatever you say in or about
mathematics.

But, do you know what the word "prove" means in Mathematics? It isn't
the same as what it means in English.

Hey gimme a break. I'm still trying to biject the set of {proven} with
the set of {true}. Not happening.

I suppose that means you don't know what the word "prove" means in
mathematics. I suggest you refrain from responding to any posts that
contain the word.

And I suggest you refrain from using the word "true".

Have you read any math books at the junior/senior college level or
above?

Apparently more than you.

Could be. Which math books have you read?

None.

What books on the topic have you read? What courses have you taken?

Apparently more than you.

Could be. Which books have you read and which courses have you taken?

None.

Ignorance is bliss?

Yours would appear to be.

I'm not sure how you could have read more books than me if you've read
none.

Simply because I define it so. Just one of the many mysteries of
transfinite arithmetic. The books you've read are negative numbers.
