PYTHAGOREANIST MANIFESTO

A declaration of independence from the irrational

Article 1: The Hypotenuse Shall Reign Supreme

For too long, we have suffered under the tyranny of the obtuse. No more! We shall not be silenced by the soft, round edges of the obtuse. The hypotenuse shall be our guiding principle, our beacon of hope.

Article 2: The Golden Ratio Shall be Our Standard

We demand a return to the Golden Ratio, that perfect and beautiful proportion that governs the universe. No longer shall we be bound by the dull, uninspired choices of the irrational.

Article 3: The 45-degree Angle Shall be Our Law

The 45-degree angle is the axis of the universe. It is the key to understanding the secrets of the cosmos. We shall not be swayed by the whims of the 90-degree angle, that false and treacherous slope.
