Raymond just made up a religion for me. It was not meant by him to be serious. Our perceptions of reality appear to be very different.

It might be worth your time to consider the possibility that it is likely that the whole of the mathematics profession is not wrong in this matter. Are there any professional mathematicians that agree with you? If pretty much the whole profession thinks you are wrong about something then it’s quite likely you are indeed wrong.

It’s worth pointing out that your logic on Q = N times N is a bit faulty too. Since you are counting things like 4/4 as different than 1/1. Even so you are correct that the cardinality of Q is N times N. This is because N times N = N.

I met Raymond at a conference in the early 90s. I was an undergraduate in math then. We talked about philosophy, religion, and mathematics. Just the two of us. The next day he came up to me and said that he invented a religion for me.

God has a number in mind. If the sum total of good deeds minus bad deeds exceeds this number then everyone goes to heavan. If not then everyone goes to hell.

Then he said to me, “Imagine, something you do could send everyone to hell.”
