Title: Mathematics in the afterlife
Post by: FierceKitty on 20 July 2025, 04:03:38 AM
In Heaven, of course, there's infinite time available, age of ages, world without end. Those who were of a scholarly inclination in their mortal days have limitless opportunities to go on studying.
The ones with a bent for mathematics usually stop after graduating 90 times, and are honoured after the final degree with the title of "right angels."

Of course given the infinite time function Heaven might be non-Euclidean, so angels might be right after all :-\
