>> I thought Islam invented it.

No, the “Great Works” was plagiarized from the materials Arabs seized primarily from a fallen Alexandria.

educators should find ways to relate math to the lives of their students.

If Javarian'te abandoned the two babies he fathered with Vulvalitis, 3 babies with Sylvanaqua and two more babies with Dareal'yst how many more babies dos he need to father to make a dozen?

(Hint a dozen is twelve)

They didn’t even invent zero. 2000 years before the pedophile invented a religion, the Egyptian were using the concept of zero.

“”The first recorded zero appeared in Mesopotamia around 3 B.C. “

The last Zero .... never mind. The Obama jokes are getting old.

That’s funny....

Two of the smartest people I’ve met in my life were also very good when it came to mathematics.

One of them was a male, but he was black. He had a Ph.D in Quantum Physics.

the other was a female and she was half-Japanese, half-Israeli. She switched from an engineering degree to a math degree and ended up graduating with a 4.0 GPA from Ohio State.

I’m sure there are plenty of other examples that completely belie this stupid assertion from the terrorists Bill Ayers and his group of idiots.

I don’t know how I could do my job without math, but then of course, I am an old white feller.

I loved Donald in Mathmagic Land when I was in sixth grade. Saw it once in school, and tried to draw by hand some of the scenes in it for weeks after.

Someone once said that math is the language of the universe......................................... It took us to the moon, and to the planets. It was a mathematic formula that propelled us in the liquid space. Folks, there is math and there is “Math”. The Math Teacher group wants “Math for Dummies”?

I think this writer means that math is the domain of everyone but those who wear hoodies.
