You are a LIAR!!

Oh come on, now Elsie, you know I can generally quote chapter and verse. I'd blame it on 11 years of Catholic school, but of course Catholics don't read the Bible. Anyway, it's not your favorite NIV, but here it is... (1 Kings 7:23)

And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, and his height was five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.

If the diameter is ten cubits, and it's round all about, and its circumference is 30 cubits, then pi = 3.

If the diameter is ten cubits, and it's round all about, and its circumference is 30 cubits, then pi = 3.

This is NOT in the Bible....

You are a liar!

There are two concentric circles, the diameter describes the outer circle, the circumference the inner circle. Right Wing Professor, please see post number 1651 (lots of pictures, too!)
