360 Degrees

Ash Asked:

Why are there 360 degrees in a circle?


Dear Ash,

At the beginning of the invention of the wheel, they started with a triangle, then they added another corner and produced a square, then they added another corner and produced a pentagon, that went on until they produced a shape with 359 sides (Trihectapentacontakaiennea), then they put on another corner and it came out as a circle and they got the wheel, so a circle has 360 corners aka 360 degrees.

New Languages

GEM Asked:

Hi Tanner!
Long time no see.

1. Have you ever studied any other languages? If so, how many and which ones?

2. What language would you WANT to learn if you could learn any language overnight without having to work hard.

3. If Chinese is a tonal language and some people are tone deaf, how do Chinese people that are tone deaf communicate? Do they have to use sign language or do they just learn to cope?

~Gem


GEM,


1. No I haven't studied other languages.


2. You didn't pose this one as a question, but I will answer it anyway,
I think I would learn English.


3. If a Chinese person is tone deaf, it really doesn't matter, because they would use context to get what they want to say across.

Finale Part

Mi Asked:

Why do people 'get off' on impeding, obstructing, opressing and stifling others?
Why are there more bad people than good?
Do you believe in God?


Mi,

To sum up the answer, we live in a sin filled world.

Mi, can you define "bad" and "good"?

I know I'm saying this for the third time, but it is the only answer I can come up with.  We live in sin filled world.

Yes, I believe in God and every word the bible says.
