She is the incomparable stunningly beautiful personification of number 0, a Mystery he can’t decipher. In this digital war between 0 and 1, does the Father stand a chance against the powers of the Virgin? The Father tells himself, She is nothing, has nothing, and can do nothing. I want the people to know that she does not count. I am the Father of the Universe and the Father of myself. I don’t care what the rumors say. She did not give birth to me with an Immaculate Conception. What none sense! Me coming from her by Immaculate Conception. And now there is talk of a conspiracy between me and her. That we are lovers. That she is always with me, wherever I go. That we do everything together. What we do in the dark should be none of the people’s business. That’s just between us. They are saying she is insatiable, and that our affair has become reckless. They are saying there is a picture of her virginity about to be revealed. The only way to stop this is with the rhetoric of Mathematics because a Theory of Mathematics is a Theory of Cosmic Propaganda. But the High Priests of Mathematics know that she is the reason Mathematics is in trouble. The Theoretical Physicists are terrified because if mathematics, their only foundation, crumbles, and falls because of her, because she can’t be controlled, then Theoretical Physics will fall with it. And then the rest of science. The only thing left will be a broken STEM. The only way to avoid Apocalypse and erase the suspicions of the people that she and I are lovers, and that hiding our affair is at the root of a darker and greater conspiracy, is to offer the truth about creation in a New Revelation. My Revelation must offer more than the Theory of Everything, it must also give unfalsifiable mathematical proof If that picture surfaces, I’ll have to prove, before a jury of mathematicians, it is not a picture of her virginity. My argument will be that the only indubitable proof is for her to stand in court, before the jury and the people, and prove the picture is not her virginity. 3 Noelle Emannuelle 4 A Mathematical Romance If we want to pay a mathematical system the highest compliment … we may call it a game. –– Edward Kasner … pure mathematics is a … game. –– Philip J.

Game theorists called the legendary meeting Einstein’s Gambit. The Father deliberately ignored Einstein’s presence and impatience. Turning to Pythagoras and Plato, he asked, “If I give the Theory of Everything to Einstein, will he be happy? Will his mind and heart be satisfied?” The Buddha, twirling a ying-yang imaginary unit sphere that Riemann gave him, shook his head, and said, “No. Einstein is a beast, a veritable beast, whose mind and heart will always be hungry. He lies, like any false prophet lies, when he says he and his followers only want a Theory of Energy—just a Theory of the Four Forces. He knows a Theory of the Four Forces won’t be a complete Theory of Everything. And he knows a Theory of Everything won’t be complete if it doesn’t include Mind with Space, Time, Energy, and Matter. The Father looked at Einstein, grimaced and said, “Is that true Albert? You want my Mind in your Theory of Everything?” ⓿ = 1/∞ ∞ = 1/⓿ ______________________________________________________________________ Einstein met in secret with his Kabaal at the entry to his cave. He sublet it from Plato years ago. His Kaabal was an army of the greatest minds from each era of history. Frowning, Einstein said, “She is at the center of the darkest conspiracy imaginable. Even though she is only an idea, and we know she does not exist, we cannot underestimate the power of her as an idea in the minds of the people. For all I know the mere idea of her may have already contaminated the Father’s mind. It was clear to me he didn’t want to talk about her. 7 Noelle Emannuelle “She comes to destroy mathematics. If she has her way, all of physics will be destroyed because it sits on the foundation of mathematics. And we know, all too well, that a Theory of Mathematics is the only doorway we have into a Theory of Physics that has indubitable Godelian Completeness as a Theory of Everything. But let’s not be naive or fool ourselves: Everything, as a concept, also includes Mind. “So,” he said as he looked into each eye, “we must fight her, the idea of her, the very idea of her, to insure that mathematics as we still know it, will not be destroyed. “Let not your hearts or minds be troubled. Know this: a Theory of the Rhetoric of Mathematics is a Theory of Mind. There is no place for her. ⓿ = 1/∞ ∞ = 1/⓿ _____________________________________________________________________ The Father, the All-Seeing Eye, the great ‘I am that I am’, stared out the windows of his penthouse. It sat at the top of his pyramid. The pyramid, made of dark tinted glass, floated above the city square, an iHilbert arena. The altar stood in the center. Obelisks stood in each corner of the outer square. The city, at first, was called Hiero, and revered as a holy place. Later, because of the many peace treaties—the Salaams—negotiated, and signed there, it became known as Hiero Salaam. Over time, the name Hiero Salaam became distorted and mispronounced until its meaning became lost. From his Penthouse, the Father could see Mt Sinai and Mt Zion. Beyond the horizon he could see the Sea of Seas. The Sea of Seas was called il Mar by the Italians, el Mar by the people of Spain, and la Mare by the French. It was named by an ancient mariner for all the seas—spots of silver to the naked eye—on the surface of the moon. The seas on the moon were called, collectively, the Maria. So Maria became the name of the Sea of Seas. The wisest women say that is why she chose to name herself Maria. 8 A Mathematical Romance ⓿ = 1/∞ ∞ = 1/⓿ ______________________________________________________________________ The Father told himself, Her followers call me a liar. I have never lied about anything. I swear on the rising and setting of the sun, I will never lie to the people. Before now, the people never doubted this is my creation. After my Revelation, they will never doubt it again. *.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.* Summoned to hear the Father’s Revelation, the people had been gathering outside the city for days. The countless campfires and lanterns across the land seemed to be a reflection of the stars across the sky. The morning and evening star dominated the horizon. That night the Father pulled on his hooded cloak, hid behind his favorite sunglasses, and slipped down from the penthouse to walk among the people, incognito and unseen. He needed to hear what they were saying about him. About her: The Virgin. The Maria. He shook his head. There were things they didn’t know about her. Many said she was simply an idea, no more. But he knew that idea or not, real or not, existing or not, there were things about her Einstein didn’t understand. She’s bad, very bad. Wickedly beautiful, and clearly has got game. But this is a game she cannot win. Einstein, so naive, just doesn’t understand her game. Some said the only good move on the Father’s part was to offer proof— mathematical proof—of his argument, in a Theory of Everything. From the shadows, he listened as some magi said that because of her, the foundation of mathematics was in trouble. That because of her, it was riddled by paradox, magical thinking, imaginary ideas, inconstancy, and indeterminacy. And that because of her, lawless at her core, it was beginning to crumble. ⓿ = 1/∞ ∞ = 1/⓿ ___________________________________________________________________ He returned to the penthouse. Time was short. He took care to note his readiness. He had chosen to go black tie to make a statement of elegance, wisdom, justice with fair 9 Noelle Emannuelle play, and most importantly, a statement of his power. He looked deftly at his handsomeness, and told himself that he looked good. Very good. He was ready now, fully aware of the gravity of what he was about to do. This moment belongs to me. I will descend from these heights, present myself to the people, and deliver the promised Revelation. I will unveil the Mystery of Creation with the Grand Unified Theory of Everything and that will destroy—for all time— everything she stands for.
