    A lie. Of course.

    Because you say so? I checked: nobody is "rejecting Euclid".

    Indeed, and au contraire:

    Nowadays Euclidean geometry is -defined- as that kind of geometry
    in which the Pythagorean theorem holds.

    And - according to the teachings of your moronic church -
    does Pythagorean theorem hold? For real?
    Poor stinker Python has never answerred, he's always
    dodging and changing the subject. How about you?

    You might have noticed that I make it a habit
    of never replying to your silly rants.
    I'll make an exception for once,
    because you are trying to mislead the innocent kiddies
    who might stray in here.

    Of course the Pythagorean theorem holds -in Euclidean geometry-.
    A forteriori, it -defines- Euclidean geometry, nowadays.

    It does of course not hold in any other kind of geometry,
    by definition,
