The equation of choice among math paradoxers and recreational mathematicians, who unspokenly derive much satisfaction in exposing students’ fallacious or illogical reasoning that leads to the contradictory result.
Be it due to division by zero or squaring (or square rooting) both sides of an equation, few students wouldn’t want to know why “1 = 2” is logically plausible.

The microblogging platform that could serve as ground zero to explore any potential extraterrestrial life, which would not only help advance both human and alien civilization and consciousness, but also prepare the planet from any future alien invasion, provided the world’s richest man succeeds in buying the money-losing company.
Mr. Musk, who desires to own Twitter, is being sued for $258bn by an investor in the Dogecoin cryptocurrency, who accused him of running a digital pyramid scheme to drive up its price.

When math authors or publishers deliberately or inadvertently use religious, satanic, or New Age symbols, icons, or logos, made up of geometric shapes, in their books to bewitch schoolchildren into the occultic or demonic world.
A grade two Chinese title was being recalled because it arguably contains a “woke geometry” item—the publisher has since apologized to its readers for depicting a bloody-looking pentagram, whereby kids are required to identify all geometric shapes that make up the “satanic symbol.”

A more fitting shortcut for Christmas, where the symbol ‘+’ reminds us of the birth of Christ, whose death on the cross paid the penalty for our sins so that we could have eternal life, rather than the abbreviated Xmas, where ‘X’ is often an unknown for nonbelievers, which could stand for a gift exchange, year-end party, roasted turkey, and the like.
Unlike Xmas that usually involves some fun or joyful activity or event for non-Christians, +mas annually reminds believers of Jesus—who came from heaven to earth as a baby, who was conceived from a virgin birth by the Holy Spirit—who has the power to forgive their sins and to offer them eternal life as they acknowledge Him as Lord and Savior.

Out-of-print math titles whose covers, contents, or creators the present generation could still remember, because when they were students, teachers, or parents, these wallet-friendly, brain-unfriendly books had positively impacted their mathematical learning or teaching, which were unsurprisingly bestsellers of their day.
Singapore’s zombie math titles of yesteryear like Fabian Ng’s “Process Skills in Problem Solving,” Dr Y H Leong’s “Challenging Problems in Mathematics,” and K C Yan’s “Mathematical Quickies & Trickies” had not only differentiated themselves from the sea of canned drill-and-kill titles, but they have since become an integral part of the local math education culture.

When the last battle between good and evil prior to the Judgement Day would take place could hypothetically or unprovenly be divined from the digits of the decimal number π.
Both number theorists and biblical numerologists are hell-bent to figuring out the D-day for Pimageddon—who would be the pi futurist who stubbornly claimed to be able to predict Christ’s Second Coming, Who had already forewarned his followers that He would return to earth like a thief?

When theomaticians and philosophers couldn’t see eye to eye based on the number π’s oft-conflicting or mixed interactions with other numbers or constants whether her allegiance is with the Vatican or with the Church of England.
Does π subscribe to the Pope’s or to the Archbishop of Canterbury’s theomatical teachings on how rational and irrational numbers ought to behave themselves in private and in public? Is pi Catholic or Protestant?
