I hate to tell you but philosophy has its own branch of basically math (logic). You need math to prove things :(

It's more like math uses logic as a tool to prove things.

Is that in the form of the supporting statistical data, for the maths alone, or...? For logic I have a better understanding, but maths has been more of a struggle for me.

It's nothing to do with statistics, "just" logic. But most people find that it starts to feel like maths real quick.
