Yeah, no worries mate.  Not much point getting too revved up about highly speculative things.  Save that for the next post which is as real af.  Duh

Infinity, to be sure, is not a new idea. It has clearly possibly been around for an infinitely long, long time.  Like most people, it’s a concept that I was first introduced to as a child. It is something that easily captures the imagination.


I remember inquiring about outer space at some point when I was in elementary school. I recall a male teacher that doesn't seem very familiar, so I'm thinking maybe it was a substitute or extra curriculum. So, the context became outer space somehow and I said to this teacher that it can't be infinite, and the teacher replied: "Well, if it isn't infinite, then what would be at the end? A wall?" And that was the gist of it.

Of course, I had no idea back then that the answer was as simple as 'nothing', and I could've even added that the perception and reality of space could be entirely different phenomena altogether.

I recall exactly when I learned about infinity in math class, as a child. It was a mind boggling concept to me, yet the teacher did nothing to spark discussion (its a shame my teacher wasn't like you myselfaswell, you could have taken us on a conceptual ride appropriate for our budding minds). Back then I thought of it as a force moving everywhere all at once, fast, and without an end.

So, I haven't anything of value, yet, to offer to this topic, just thought I'd share that story and my enjoyment of all things math.

Do we manifest the existence of infinity when we create the idea of infinity in our minds? Or do we believe time exists and infinity exists within time? Or are we making it all up to explain the unexplainable?

I'm not really surprised about your teacher.  Most people would generally run away screaming from the idea of infinity.

Hopefully you'll find some more informative stuff in Part 4

Yes, no, no.

Infinity Equals One@ARARITA:
One from Zero


One
is my beginning
yet I am eternal

One
is my individuality
yet my diversity bears no limits

One
is my permutation;
my qualities are infinite

I am all things, and
I am
One

Yeah, I'll pay that, that's pretty cool.

In fact, one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard, and it came from a "mathematician" on the tele, is that infinity cannot equal zero.  LOL, the naivete, or is it indoctrination.

Anyway, don't jump the gun friend, statements like "is clearly incorrect" won't help, until you've read the whole story.  Oh, and maybe review my words re:dogma.

As I've said, there's mathematical infinity and philosophical infinities and they're both very different.  Mathematically, no, infinity cannot equal zero.  Philosophically, anything might be declared an infinity.

I find the mathematical ones to be fascinating.

I not talking about a mathematical infinity or philosophical infinity.  I'm talking about a fundamental property of everything.  You'll see what I mean when I post Part 4.

It's all energy. Infinite improbability could also be defined as infinite possibility?

In a world of yes and no there's also a maybe.
