When the irrational number π appears to be particularly attracted to numerical buddies like e, i, and 𝜙 whenever they are indulged in some extra-mathematical activities together, as revealed by their intimate liaisons.
Don’t the following numerical relationships prove that pi and friends have an affinity for one another?
π ≈ 6/5 𝜙²
π ≈ (9 – e)
iⁱ = e^(-π/2)
e^(iπ) + 1 = 0
(- )! = √π
eⁱˣ = cos x + i sin x
π ≈ 6/5 𝜙²
π ≈ (9 – e)
iⁱ = e^(-π/2)
e^(iπ) + 1 = 0
(- )! = √π
eⁱˣ = cos x + i sin x

Get the Pi and Friends mug.When mathematics’s most famous constant π transcends different math topics and disciplines, permeates both art and science, and lays hidden in philosophy and religion, often popping up in the least expected places in nature—the symbol π is a global icon that resonates positively or negatively with peoples of all ages and backgrounds.
Pi is sovereign among dozens of mathematical constants, but God is Sovereign among thousands of gods and goddesses, or deities and idols.

Evangelical leaders who risk losing (or have sold) their souls for grasping political power are preaching Trumpism or white supremacy under the flag of Christian nationalism—aren’t their preaching the political slogan MAGA, instead of the Magi, a stumbling block to millions of pre-believers of Christianity?

Get the MAGA mug.It is the presence of God in your life, not your possessions, that makes you a success—stop chasing material things and start a personal relationship with Him.
You may be financially naked, educationally unqualified, and not connected to people of influence, yet if you've faith in the power of the presence of God in your life, you can expect your nothings to turn into somethings—who you have, not what you have is what matters.

Get the Who you have, not what you have mug.When the value of the mathematical pi is exactly three, which can be inferred from two verses in the Bible (1 Kings 7:23 and 2 Chronicles 4:2)—the “biblical pi” contradicts the mathematicians’ value, which is about 3.14 or 22/7.
How does one reconcile the value of pi in the sky with the irrational value of pi on earth? Could theologians or theomaticians explain the missing “0.14” bit to the mathematical brethren?

Get the Pi in the Sky mug.A highly stressful place where local students are more afraid of failing their math exam than of their parents dying—one in three said that life isn't worth living.
Dubbed an "authoritarian democracy" by critics, Singapore is "a first world oasis in a third world region"—where political dissidents would better apply for asylum in the US or the West to avoid being fined, jailed, or made bankrupt.
