Good+Definitions

Part of Geometry is establishing good definitions for terms using the following criteria: 1. The definition accurately describes what is to be defined. 2. The definition includes only words that are commonly understood, purposefully undefined, or previously defined. 3. Include no more information than is necessary.

Here are a few examples. Have fun. ATHEISM is a non-prophet organization. AVOIDABLE (uh-voy'-duh-buhl'): What a bullfighter tries to do. CANNIBAL: Someone who is fed up with people.
