But I think it is a serious issue to wonder about the other platonic absolutes of say beauty and morality.

With thought comprising a non-computational element, computers can never do what we human beings can.

It is always the case, with mathematics, that a little direct experience of thinking over things on your own can provide a much deeper understanding than merely reading about them.
