Epistemology to Ontology
Charles Hampton
1977

This paper argues for mathematicians thinking about the philosophy of math, especially Christians.  It briefly sketches the limitations of formalism, intuitionism, and logicism and uses Christian concept of creation to argue that one can take the best of each of these philosophies and avoid the pitfalls.  It also argues for the real existence of mathematical objects apart from the human mind.
