Re: Pi Calculated to 4.5 billion decimal places

You are dismissing my point. Commandments aren't the issue I am discussing. The issue I'm referring to is the pragmatism that we should follow these rules, because following them makes sense, which is apparently something this community disencourages.

Friend, we don't follow these rules because they make sense! Oh goodness no! If God wanted to make sense to us mere humans, do you really think He would have created light (Genesis 1:3) before He created the sun and moon and stars? (Genesis 1:14-18)

Why that's just silly!

God's sense is so far above ours as to make it look quite foolish from our vantage point. (Isaiah 55:9) We don't follow the Holy Bible because it makes sense, we follow the Holy Bible because it is the Word of God, and God alone has the power to save us from the eternity of Hell He lovingly and justly created just for us! (Mark 16:16)

Re: Pi Calculated to 4.5 billion decimal places

Your first mistake is calling me an atheist. I have never claimed or denied the existence of a god, so I will skip your little ambiguous quiz.
Your second mistake is implicitly claiming that the Bible explicitly says that Pi = 3. You have yet to cite this. I warn you that you are on the verge of making yourself a liar, something your god abhors.

I don't mind your willful ignorance of my quiz. It's God you will answer to on Judgment Day, not me. I am just the messenger. Go ahead and shoot me; it will only get me to Heaven faster.

I have already provided the scripture that states the circumference of a ROUND OBJECT (i.e. circular object) is thrice its diameter. I am not going to cite it again.

Enjoy Hell, Godmocker! Heaven here I come! Woohoo!

Re: Pi Calculated to 4.5 billion decimal places

Why would you want pi to be 3 instead of 3.14..something. You won't be able to use it for any circle (pi*R^2 for surface and 2*pi*R for circumference) or the volume of a sphere (4/3 *pi*R^3), so what's the point? Is it mentioned in the bible that pi=3? Did god do maths?

It's not down to what we want. We don't WANT pi to be 3 - but if God says it is then that's that.

In that case the practical use of pi disappears, so it has no use.

So a few mathematicians sulk for a bit. Big deal!

First of all, this is NOT a debate forum. We're right and you're wrong, according to Jesus and the Holy Word of God. Please read THIS thread before making an even bigger fool of yourself.

Secondly, while the internets might seem to be "free" to you, this particular corner of the internets is a privately owned Christian forum. The rights you have on this forum are listed HERE. Please contact a Pastor immediately if you feel that any of your rights have been violated.

Finally, your unsaved opinions or tantrums are not even slightly of interest to us. We follow the Holy Word of God TO THE LETTER, and make no apologies for that. One of the most important commandments in the Bible tells us to avoid unsaved scum such as yourself. You wandered in here uninvited, and unwelcome .

Re: Pi Calculated to 4.5 billion decimal places

You know what, maybe if you people would not shout and swear so much I could have taken any of this forum seriously. Wondering around a bit and looking at the topics that are made I came to the conclusion you are all deluded ignorant people raised by the hard word of god and the bible and I pity you.
Now I'm sure this will end up in a permanent ban, because this is how you people are; anyone that denies the existence of a god while people not believing in god are mostly the scientist creating new technology and saving lives, while you people are only hating around and not brining love in this world.
I pity you people, hope you live a nice live and see you in heaven

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

No you won't.
