Scientific Siscovery?

When the scientist discovers something and formalizes it in a mathematical formula, he is no longer telling us that this mathematical formula is pre-existing and valid eternally long before everything that happens or what he discovered. Whoever says that it is only scientific or, better, it only makes sense what is mathematizable, and that only verifiable is mathematizable (thus invalidating metaphysics - the soul, the existence of God and a universe with meaning) does not is understanding that if I can express laws of nature in a mathematical way, it is because that formula was valid in the world of principles - just as it is defended in the philosophies of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, but also in the prophecies of Israel and the message of Christ. Does this mean that I will get to know nature as it is? Evidently not, only insofar as nature is not reducible to the mathematical universe because it occurs in a time that is not the divine timeless. Does it mean I'm going to give up science? Evidently not; but the entity of nature is not self-supporting, even if it results from formulas eternally given, which also include the possibility of human intelligence. It is the eternal pre-existence of divine logos , without which science is not possible. More than a matter of faith, that is, in my opinion, the basis of any science and this is where we must start, as philosophers like Bergson argue, but also - and in a more profound and erudite way - Husserl. Mathematical formulas are thus not invented by man. Nor do they result from the experience of the senses. If they resulted from the experience of the senses, they would be contingent because they only give us particular realities. If they were human creations, they would not be in the known entity. It is because we say that they are in the known entity, regardless of my thinking and although synthesized by it and always in participation, they can only result from a presence that precedes me or, better, from an absolute principle. All of this can be intuitive and, hence, the importance of intuition - the capture of a presence not mediated by a determined concept. Musical geniuses, poets and mystics and sages, have the gift of not needing to explain anything - they unveil almost everything in a while, and the Being always occurs in an indefinition - between the lines. The most important thing, as Wittgenstein will say, can never be verbalized, even if it exists.
