snippets to ponder:
- "Gods as Topological Invariants" - D. Schoch
"We show that the number of gods in a universe must equal the Euler characteristics of its underlying manifold. By incorporating the classical cosmological argument for creation, this result builds a bridge between theology and physics and makes theism a testable hypothesis. Theological implications are profound since the theorem gives us new insights in the topological structure of heavens and hells. Recent astronomical observations can not reject theism, but data are slightly in favor of atheism."

Re Frampton: read http://arxiv.org/abs/1004.1910 . I dare you.
Please note the publication date on the link. ;-)
From just a couple of days ago!
We bring you the hottest news here on this here blog...
It was analysed by a top skepto who noted it is axiomatic and therefore correct, given the assumptions.
I just saw "Topology of Gods", perhaps via CiteULike? I was puzzled: How could the author have no endorsements, nor be an endorser himself? http://arxiv.org/auth/show-endorsers/1203.6902 Yet he published...THAT!
Fortunately, arXiv lists CatDynamics as the sole blog trackback for said "article". Mystery solved, with thanks to Tamara and her clever comment!
