Personally, I believe that if there really was a God, irrational numbers would have exact values.

"God made the integers; all else is the work of man" -- Leopold Kronecker

A minor point, but the set of integers can be modeled based on axiomatic set theory. 0={}, 1={{}}, 2={{},{{}}}, etc. (i.e., n + 1 = {0,1,...,n})
