The difference between numbers and numerals is that numbers are abstract entities (non-physical) and numerals are their symbols or instantiations. This prose is in the shape of the Roman numeral II (2)
Picture Professor Bahnsen are at a blackboard, and he draw the numeral
two on the blackboard. Professor Bahnsen then asks “Is that the number
two?” One students says “Yes.” Professor Bahnsen then erases the
numeral and asks the class “If that was the number two is gone forever
the point being that numbers are not physic-
al so how does an atheist account for coun
-ting? how does an unbeliever (if being tru
e to atheism) as a n aturalist with matter and
motion being the wo rldview account for abst-
ractions like number -s they must beg the qu
estion which is enga -ging in circular reasonin
g you can’t truly be an atheist you must
borrow from the Chr istian worldview to make
sense out of reason ethics and knowledge No
-ne of these is physi- cal or either made of ma
tter or in constant motion. So how can atheists use numbers they must
rely on the Christian worldview. If you are going to be true to atheism
you shouldn’t care about the result of any instance. Being bio-bags of
chemicals, after all what one animal does to another is irrelevant
