But don't think that all one learns in these classes is how to conjugate verbs and other such mun dane matters. The teachers also in- troduce the culture, literature, his- tory, and music of these foreign countries to the students.

Mathematics There is no such subject as mathematics. This can be proven when one considers the point. We are told that the point we see on the blackboard has no area, no length, and no width. But we all know that if something does not have these properties it cannot exist. We are further told that a line is made up of two endpoints Cwiich have no length, width, or areal and an infinite number of points between them. But an infinite number of no- things is still nothing. Therefore neither the point nor the line exist, which means that most of higher mathematics is purely fictional . You might wonder why we have a math section in the Atinian, but it really doesn't matter because nothing really exists, it's all in your mind, Rst?-351' W -' f L 'ii' 4 if Y W T' ' fg f2:,,-:f-f,5-.- -vf-sr .
