But the relationship between radii of circles and pi is more of a law or tautology than a theory...by Gin and Sex-

Wait a second, you want to believe that the ratio of circumference to diameter is three like it says in Kings or 3.14159...  like those pointy headed so-called math experts say?

Seriously folks (I was being facetious), maybe it wouldn't hurt to be a little more flexible and relaxed when it comes to our understanding of our scriptures versus someone else's understanding of his scriptures.

I would like to propose a theory about the degree of correctness of the bible. The bible says the ratio of the circumference to diameter is 3.0. It is a modern "law or tautology" that the ratio is 3.14159 (+ a little more).

If we divide 3 by 3.14159 we should get an actual measure of the correctness of the bible. This demonstrates that bible is 95.5% accurate.

If we assume that the a part of the 4.5% error is in the creation story, we can put these crevo debates to bed forever.
