1
00:00:00,789 --> 00:00:04,600
自然的法律只是上帝的數學思考。

2
00:00:04,862 --> 00:00:07,523
這句話來自亞歷山大的歐幾里德。

3
00:00:07,523 --> 00:00:12,655
他是公元前三百年希臘的一位數學家和哲學家。

4
00:00:12,655 --> 00:00:19,691
我引用他說的這句話是因爲人們都稱他爲幾何學之父。

5
00:00:19,691 --> 00:00:22,663
不管你對上帝的看法是這麼樣的，這句話是很好的一句話。

6
00:00:22,663 --> 00:00:25,054
無論上帝存不存在，或上帝的自性如何。

7
00:00:25,054 --> 00:00:27,516
這是自然原本的事情。

8
00:00:27,516 --> 00:00:31,649
自然的法律只是上帝的數學思考。

9
00:00:31,649 --> 00:00:35,016
數學可以用來解釋自然界的規則。

10
00:00:35,016 --> 00:00:37,802
英文裏，幾何學 （geometry）這個詞有希臘語的來源。

11
00:00:37,802 --> 00:00:40,983
geo 在希臘語裏是地球的意思。

12
00:00:40,983 --> 00:00:44,211
metry 是測量的意思。

13
00:00:44,211 --> 00:00:47,183
您可能有聽過 metric system （國際公制）。

14
00:00:47,183 --> 00:00:50,132
而歐幾里德是幾何學之父。

15
00:00:50,132 --> 00:00:52,802
（不是因爲他是第一個研究幾何學的人 )

16
00:00:52,802 --> 00:00:56,285
你也許可以想的到第一個研究幾何學的人。

17
00:00:56,562 --> 00:01:00,024
他們可能只是觀察到想那樣的地上的樹枝。

18
00:01:00,024 --> 00:01:02,462
然而他們可能看到了另外一堆一模一樣的形狀的樹枝。

19
00:01:02,462 --> 00:01:05,178
之後就說，“這個的開口比較大。這跟那個的關係是什麼樣的呢？”

20
00:01:05,178 --> 00:01:13,654
或是他們看到了一顆樹上掉下來一樣形狀的樹枝。

21
00:01:13,654 --> 00:01:18,274
然而說，“這兩個的開口有一點相似的部分。”。

22
00:01:18,274 --> 00:01:19,737
或是他們問自己了。

23
00:01:19,737 --> 00:01:26,123


24
00:01:26,123 --> 00:01:28,352


25
00:01:28,352 --> 00:01:31,812


26
00:01:31,812 --> 00:01:34,412


27
00:01:34,412 --> 00:01:39,010


28
00:01:39,010 --> 00:01:43,259


29
00:01:43,259 --> 00:01:45,535


30
00:01:45,535 --> 00:01:54,511


31
00:01:54,511 --> 00:01:59,832


32
00:01:59,832 --> 00:02:05,793


33
00:02:05,793 --> 00:02:08,383


34
00:02:08,383 --> 00:02:14,397


35
00:02:14,397 --> 00:02:21,263


36
00:02:21,263 --> 00:02:24,773


37
00:02:24,773 --> 00:02:31,441


38
00:02:31,441 --> 00:02:37,524


39
00:02:37,524 --> 00:02:40,682


40
00:02:40,682 --> 00:02:44,955


41
00:02:44,955 --> 00:02:47,532
了

42
00:02:47,532 --> 00:02:51,851


43
00:02:51,851 --> 00:02:55,334


44
00:02:55,334 --> 00:03:02,393


45
00:03:02,393 --> 00:03:05,806


46
00:03:05,806 --> 00:03:14,374


47
00:03:14,374 --> 00:03:18,182


48
00:03:18,182 --> 00:03:24,475


49
00:03:24,475 --> 00:03:29,723


50
00:03:33,215 --> 00:03:37,721


51
00:03:37,721 --> 00:03:43,747


52
00:03:43,747 --> 00:03:51,549

00:03:51,549 --> 00:03:55,729

00:03:55,729 --> 00:03:58,492

00:03:58,492 --> 00:04:01,255

00:04:01,255 --> 00:04:04,042

00:04:04,042 --> 00:04:06,155

00:04:06,155 --> 00:04:11,402

00:04:11,402 --> 00:04:14,096
