Guys,
You are killing me here! LOL.
I don't know if I need to be fluent in geo or trig for preaching. I
base this on the fact that the church that I have attended for the last
five years, the pastor has NEVER given a sermon on the hypothesuse of a
triangle. But I'd still sort of like to see where this conversation is
going to go.

Let's see, Godel's theorem basically says that there are things that are
true that you cannot prove within a given mathematical system. It seems
like this would analogize nicely into the natural world and the
supernatural (God or what have you).

Infinite series--I'm reaching a bit on this one. Some infinite series
converge to a finite result, some converge to an infinite result.
Everyone sins, but some kind of sins are too much?

Of course, the problem with these is that the folks in the congregation
who aren't asleep yet will be really confused.

I love it. I copied this one for future use. :-)
