Tzvi Ben Roshel1:
Pi - The Secret of Creation

Our Torah is sweeter than honey. Within it, you can find all the secrets of creation.
I'm going to share with you something that none of the math or geophysics professors in MIT or Cal Tech know, nor does anyone on the staff at NASA. Now hear this from your buddy Lazer:
Pi is the secret of creation. Kabbalah, our esoteric portion of Torah passed on to us by Rabbi Yitzchak Luria Ashkenazi (the famed "Arizal") and his disciple Rabbi Chaim Vital, may their holy memories arouse mercy on us, explains that Ain Sof, Hashem The Infinite, created the world by a process known as tzimtzum, or contraction, whereby Hashem had to designate a point in the middle of his Divine and all-encompassing light to make room for a physical universe. This process, super simplified, was done by hishtalshelut, a series of cocentric circles the correspond to each of the sefirot, the holy spheres that mainifest Hashem's different attributes.
Therefore, nothing in creation is square. All of creation is round, from electrons and protons to the great galaxies.
A magical number, the key to computing circles, diameters, and circumferences is Pi, or 3.14 with subsequent fractional digits to infinity.
The Holy Name that Hashem used and uses (for creation is renewed every single day) in the contraction process is שד"י, the Hebrew name Shaddai, which is made up of 3 letters, shin, dalet, and yud.
All Hebrew letters have a numerical value. Shin is 300, yud is 10, and dalet is 4. Together, the Holy Name of Shaddai equals 314. If we divide this number by 100, the number that signifies perfection - which only Hashem is - we get 3.14, or pi, the secret of creation.

this is charedi propaganda,
(charedi meaning very religious and cut off from the secular world)
they like to portray professors and mathematicians as idiots, and rabbis as untouchably brilliant.
so their buddy "lazer" (who happens to be a rabbi by the way), knows better than all these mathematicians and the rest..
The propaganda helps keep kids away from university, so they can study torah more!! (and rely/trust rabbis rather than anti religious professors)
Obviously, you don`t need to be a genius to realise it is nothing incredible, that one of G-d`s names has a numerical value of 314, which just so happens to be pi rounded off to 2dp, and times 100.
The article wasn`t so dishonest though, it did not claim it to be a miracle..
The style of the article was amusing though.. reasons given! Excellent for brainwashing.
The kabbalah might be presented correctly, I don`t know about that.. Of course it was the vehicle it was presented in, was charedi propaganda, to make it palatable.. and to keep the brainwashed clan under control!!!
I don`t know any communities of jews that would fall for that though, none are that thick. Be interesting to know who the target audience is. Given that it is on the internet..
Maybe it was just an inappropriate/unsuitable article - unsuitable for the type of people that have internet access!

What's with this hateful rant? It looks like Tzvi posted some kind of kabbalistic explanation or some such. How is this ridiculing mathematicians? You sound a little defensive there, bud.
