The math parable

One day, Jesus said to his disciples: “The Kingdom of Heaven is like 3x squared plus 8x minus 9.”

A man who had just joined the disciples looked very confused and asked Peter: “What, on Earth, does he mean by that?”

Peter replied: “Don’t worry – it’s just another one of his parabolas.”
