Sad to watch ppl grasp with incompleteness, undecidability, & other universal constraints, and fail to immediately apprehend the shadow of an infinitely intelligent uncreated being prior to all existence

latter could for example be explained by the universe taking place in the effective topos, aka computable space, which lacks all the fancy infinite stuff

that also has other things going for it, for example equivalence between any two turing machines is undecidable in the general case, and guess what's hard to do in this universe? doing exact measurements of anything
