Pi

Pi is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. As far as anyone knows, the number never ends. From a theological and philosophical perspective, is it a symbol of divine infiniteness? A mathematical illustration of eternity? A pathway to some esoteric sphere? Who knows? All that is certain is that God has built a universe in which the relationship between two aspects of a circle is a number with no end. Weird? Maybe . . . but pretty cool, too! Here is Pi to 72 places:
