Re: Came Across an Interesting Book...

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Or I'll even lower the bar: Please explain what "some kind of biblical geometry" even means. [/ QUOTE ] Pi = 3. [/ QUOTE ] 2 Chronicles 4:2 "Also he [Solomon] made a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits the height thereof; and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about." Score one significant figure for God, good enough for government work amirite? [/ QUOTE ] Is that God's version of a geometry proof? Sounds a little bit like a land assessor calculating lot dimensions. [/ QUOTE ] The point is that if a cylindrical vat is 10 cubits across, it'll be 31.4 cubits around. Does it trouble you that the creator of the universe would make such a simple mistake? |
