Meh
Not a strong argument for pi=3.
Rebuttal 1) bible expression has rounding error
Rebuttal 2) bible meant that line around rim of Sea thing was at least 30 cubits long.
Errors in the bible -- exactly my point. Rebuttal 1) is no rebuttal at all.
Adding words into a verse in order to make it compute correctly is classic Christian apologetics, but not what is actually written. If the Word of God must be corrected by the word of Man, what does that say about this god's knowledge? For this reason, Rebuttal 2) also illustrates my point of Yahweh's imperfection.
