That mathematics is a liberal art is not debatable.

And yet here we are debating it! Go figure.

You may think you're debating. I am only reciting facts.
After all, to some, even the claim of creationism vs.
evolution is a "debate."

My first rule of debate is when there are two
well defined positions, they are both wrong.

Or both are half wrong. Or both are half right. Depends upon whether you
are an optimist or a pessimist .. I am not a creationist. Yet I believe
that standard evolution theory is wrong. (Some people I know are experts
in the anatomy of the human body, that may be one reason)
