If I'm not mistaken I think pi does exist in Euclidean geometry (as just the ratio between c and d). It becomes irrational when we try to fit it's value into our existing numbering system (by definition within that system). As welshbyte said in an earlier post we could have designed a new numbering system around it and made pi = 1.
Someone let me know if I'm all wet, I think I am way over my head here, LOL.
