You've perhaps heard confusion about the correct answer - it depends on precisely how the question is phrased/assumptions.
"...it can't be proven mathematically" is incorrect, it's trivial to show, and you don't even need to use mathematics - just enumerate the tree of possible decisions and count outcomes.
There is a nicely done book The Monty Hall Problem: The Remarkable Story of Math's Most Contentious Brain Teaser that goes over the genesis of the problem, the machinations that various persons went through, the mathematics of the answer(s), and variations therein.
Very inexpensive book, and probably at your local library, highly recommended if you want the Full Monty treatment...
