TruePath, Thanks for the pointer to Lob's Theorem.

I just bought a book "God Created the Integers" edited by Stephen Hawking of black hole fame because I was curious about the title.

The title comes from a quote by a 19th century mathematician Leopold Kronecker: "God created the integers. All the rest is the work of Man."

The "subjective feeling" is that paradoxes don't really exist in the grand scheme of things.

Is there a more natural way to navigate the integers without using a man-made (paradoxical) Arithmetic?

Food for thought, so to speak.
