Re: Math: Did we discover or create it?
CraigD: Diogenes Laertius claims that Greek thought divided into two basic "schools", one following Pythagoras and the other Anaximander. In Diogenes' classification, Plato appears in the Anaximander lineage, ie at variance with Pythagoras. What, if anything, do you think Diogenes felt were the distinguishing features in the relationships of mathematics with a supposed reality espoused by Pythagoras and Plato?
