Haha. Don't you just love this in depth mathematical philosophy, Shade?
I don't understand why one would be a prime number but not an odd number. The even numbers follow a very simple pattern - if it can be divided by two and come up with a whole number then that proves that the number is even.
Since a number can only be either odd or even (and these are mutually exclusive), and since 1 divided by 2 = 1/2 (meaning both a half and one divided by two) which is not a whole number means that 1 is not even, and therefore must be odd.
Could you explain the reasoning behind your teachings, whiteninja? You've confused me just a tad...
