Because anyone knows what the mind of God is like.

The human mind keeps the Mandelbrot set going infinitely. Nothing else. If you keep adding another triangle between each triangle, it will never end. Key word IF. That’s the entire problem with fractals. What if we stop drawing triangles between each 2. Then the fractal stops. Problem solved, it has nothing to do with real science. It is all based on IF.

Yes fractals are observable in nature, however look small enough and you won’t see the pattern continue.

Freedom, you are making an excellent point which escapes many scientists who use mathematical models interchangeably with reality. Global warming is a good example of the model method of science where they assume the "map is the territory," or the "math is reality."
