Runes were NOT composed only of straight lines. That's a popular modern myth, generally spread by people who have apparently never bothered to look at the actual historical examples. Curved lines appear in pretty much every runic inscription ever made. Just do a search of the internet for "historical rune stones" and you'll see it for yourself — and it will disprove the nonsensical claim that carving a curved line in stone is any harder than a straight line, too.
Furthermore, runes continued to be used much later in history than most people realize, and there are runic texts written in ink on paper, and obviously the nonsense about carving wouldn't even apply there. Find a picture of the 14th century "Codex Runicus", which was written in Medieval Runes. There are curved lines all through it.

Is a straight line a straight line and why?
Depends. Probably not because nothing is perfect! :)i have to disagree - the sides of crystals are straight~*Sigh*All lines are straight. A man-made one may not be, but by the correct definition, all lines are straight. Straight lines are a mathematical concept - an ideal concept - and therefore, conceptually, all lines are straight even if man-made ones are mere approximations.
