Re: Theos-World Re: Pi as a fractional number?

John,

What is "energy creation"? I thought that, in accord with the fundamental 
laws of conservation, energy can neither be created nor destroyed. What has Pi 
got to do with that? And how can a mathematical circle be imperfect? Also, 
please explain what Law (other than the laws of pure arithmetic and geometry) 
determines the nature of Pi -- which is the ratio between the radius and 
circumference of a mathematically perfect circle. 

As for "the Absolute," I thought that only refers to the unknown, infinitely 
potential, unconditioned ground out of which everything (all conditioned forms 
of energy or force) initially appears. The noumena of a manifest circle 
would, therefore, have to be a perfect circle of force around a zero-point of no 
directional dimensions. At the first and smallest radial expansion of any line 
of that force -- the potential ratio of the radius to the circumference, Pi, 
therefore, could be considered as an absolute preconditioned aspect of the 
"Absolute."
