It may not be THE language of nature (math?), but your mind is one expression of the natural world. As for meaningless questions...do we really need to get into "what is meaning" again?
Excellent input.
My two cents: nature has many languages (methods of communication/expression) i.e. DNA, time, spatiality, etc, that can be described mathematically. The way our mind works is a natural communication method, so it too is a language of nature. I do not however agree that math might be 'the' language of nature.
There are specific situations in which mathematics fails to describe nature, though. (IE when the laws of physics fail).
