Fasters's definitions
One who numerologically believes that the value of the number π and a number of mathematical formulas are encoded in the structure of the Great Pyramid in Egypt—for example, the perimeter of the base of the Great Pyramid divided by twice its height supposedly gives the value 3.150685.
Pi pyramidologists restrict their attention to the Great Pyramid but ignore other Egyptian pyramids—if the heights and base dimensions of 22 true pyramids were used to calculate π, the value ranges from 2.58 to 4.42.

Get the Pigiarist mug.How mathematics is used in cultural astronomy, such as in figuring out the date of Chinese New Year or the start date of Ramadan (the fasting month for Muslims)—both dates depend on the phase of the moon.
One unexpected draw to heavenly math is that it often draws arts and humanities students to discover the sciences behind astronomy, especially those who have an irrational fear of numbers.

Get the Heavenly Math mug.The aha! feeling math geeks experience at the sight or sound of a little juicy or sexy theorem, or math factoid, on the number π—a minor form of mathematical bliss that could last for days in some instances.
Just as Roland Barthes, French writer and critic, associates a good or pleasurable read with a dizzying orgasm, pure mathematicians or number theorists secretly dream or long for an orgasmic pi chance encounter, especially when they’re at their most vulnerable state of mind.

Get the Orgasmic Pi mug.The most disruptive figure in all of humanity, and the universe’s most nonreligious figure, whose death on the cross now allows humankind to have a direct communication line with their Creator, without daily, weekly, monthly, or annual rituals, rites, and animal sacrifices, or obeying man-made religious laws.
In some parts of the world, the mere mention of Jesus Christ, or being caught reading the Good News about His love and power, could land truth seekers behind bars, because His name is above all other names—all (human, demonic, or spiritual) forces, governments, and principalities on earth are under His sovereign rule.
