A discussion in Sociology, as well as my Speech class made me questioned humanity.

This is one of those things that would explode your head if you thought to deeply about it.

Technically math was invented. The world could exist without it, though this is completely unconcievable at the moment, and I won't even try to venture into it.

Think of it as the object of money. We don't need money. It's simply paper we put value on. There are no fees and expenses, they've all been made-up. Nothing says we can't run this world without money. We could build things, and there'd be no expenses, because money didn't exist. But, we can't because of human greed.

Practically, theoretically and technically, math was invented through axioms. The world exist perfectly fine without it, but what has that to do with its absoluteness?

And it is debatable whether money were made because of human greed or not. It's a very efficient way of trading items indirectly you see. If you had to get a house, you would need to trade a car and other items. You would not have a bank, but a storage of valuable items. And how would you pay your bills and get your wages if you did not have money? Through items. It would require so extremely much more work to do it that way, and that's where money comes in: It's undoubtedly a way more efficient way of doing things.

No trading at all, you say? Just giving away stuff to others? Hello, communism.
