I am amused by what you secular humanist mathematicians base your theories of mathematics on. All you have is a bunch of measurements, some silly conjectures and a pile of flimsy books on geometry. These are nothing compared to the holy writ of God found in Chronicles. These heathons (sp?) declare that the value of pi is (approximately) 3.14! My theory of mathematics is based on the irrefutable word of God as he speaks in Chapter 4 of 2 Chronicles: "Also he made a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits in height thereof; and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about." This obviously means that the God-given value of pi is 3, not some irrational value like 3.14...... I pray that Jesus will show you the way to the Truth and Light before you meet the Father on the Day of Judgement.

Well, um, if we allow the writer (or the maker of that "molten sea") to round his dimensions to the nearest cubit, we are free to let pi be anything from 30.5/9.5 = 3.21 to 29.5/10.5 = 2.81. This would be the definitive refutation of either Evolutionism or Creationism, if I could only figure out which. Regards, Chris -- Full-Name: Christopher J.
