I am arguing that the entire edifice of math is supported by evidence, in the same manner that the edifice of the scientific method is supported by evidence, and that we do not likewise have evidence to support the edifice of an epistemology for generating objective moral truths.
You can go upwards in the tree of comments to see where I’ve discussed this already, but if you still find my meaning unclear I could answer whatever questions you might have to clarify my position.

What do you count as evidence in math?

OK. Does physical evidence of math “working” in physics count for “the entire edifice of math is supported by evidence”, or is it totally unrelated?
I would contend that it counts.
