Mathematicians tested my limits and forced me to look at the world
objectively enough to figure out what was going on and solve the
problem, but questions still remain in my mind as I begin yet again to
wait and comprehend how a people, a group of people really, around the
world could have acted in this way.
One part of me sees it as destiny meant to force me to do what I would
not have otherwise done, requiring me to solve problems I might
otherwise not have attempted, as our world heads towards challenges
most of you still clearly do not comprehend as intelligence got our
species here, and without intelligence our species will not long
survive.
But life and death can seem so distant to comfortable people so today
our world is increasingly uncomfortable so more of you will
understand.
That is just the warning.
Reality has no problems with death and misery on a scale many of you
will simply decide can't happen just like you decided you could ignore
mathematical proofs because you decided that this day wouldn't be
here.
For a long time I've seen this battle as a decision point for the
species that most didn't realize was there when humanity would decide
if it would die in misery on this planet or if it would have the
courage and strength to develop the mathematics and science to leave
this planet and explore the stars.
Many of you have fought for the death of the species, others have
fought for life.
The balance is where the answer lies and as we sit in a real life
equation calculating its way out before us and as the fate of humanity
and the fate of life on this world is decided, it occurs to me that
maybe some of you really don't know what limits are.
One of my predecessors Sir Isaac Newton fully understood them, and
another, Archimedes comprehended their meaning.
But tests today are lost on some who have never truly been tested.
Who do not know the value of intelligence.
Who do not understand what reality is.
Mathematics is the language of the Universe. It is the force that
binds and holds reality together.
It is the only true power in reality.
And with it, all that is possible is realized and outside of it there
is nothing.
You do not understand the true power of mathematics, or the meaning
beyond mysticism, or you would never have set yourselves up in a
battle that you could only win, if humanity died.
So you sealed your fates as the equations balance.
