Let: a = 1 b = 1 Then: a = b Square both sides, we get: a^2 = b^2 Move them to the left, we get: a^2 - b^2 = 0 Factoring (a^2 - b^2): (a-b)(a+b) = 0 And dividing by (a-b): (a-b)(a+b)/(a-b) = 0/(a-b) Simplifying: 1(a+b) = 0 Or simply: (a+b) = 0 Therefore: 1 + 1 = 0 Some people are like that with the Bible. Logical, but false. But you know it is false only if you know that 1 + 1 is not equal to zero. II Timothy 3:13: But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
