I would generically agree with you, on one point.Some things are beyond their ability to do the math. Usually become of complexity. It is amazing how much is done with fifth and eighth-grade math. There are limitless opportunities for people who can actually function at an 11th-grade level. The Amish quit school in the eighth grade. So as carpenters, they are pretty primitive.
As many technical people have pointed out, there are only a limited
number of complex problems that can be described with a closed
form mathematical formula. In that sense, mathematics cannot describe
very much, especially about the biological world.
But, the arguments used by the Intelligent design authors, are VERY
mathematically computable. Such as the odds of a protein, being
produced by random mutation.
Computing the "odds" of something happening randomly, does not involve
advanced math.
Christians should not assert that conclusions about biological "evolution"
cannot be examined on the basis that the math is too complex. The math
is really pretty simple.
