Maths a theory ; Sounds stupid

I second that.

All mathmatics is theory based upon theory. The decimal system itself is a theory, upon which all mathematics is based. Had the decimal system been set up any other way all of mathematics would be completly different. All mathematics is is a system humans devised to help explain things in understandable terms.

I agree. Maths was developed by humans to quantify naturally-occuring phenomena. It is us who developed numbers, co-ordinates and vectors. No one told us that this point should be (0,0)... we do that for our own good.
