Hook your computer up to a lightning bolt and its capacity goes to "burnt toast" in a fraction of a second. Ask both of us to do pushups for 500 hours without rest, and we can't. So clearly there's no infinite capacity there.)
And anyone who's studied math is going to look at your philosophy and go "say WHAT?" There's the infinite set of fractions between zero and 1 (any tiny fraction you can image, I can make smaller by adding any number between 1 and 9 to the end of the denominator.)
You can have an infinite set made up of an infinite number of infinities... and so forth. For a VERY brief mathematical view, see this old Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/math/comments/6...are_there/
I haven't studied philosophical infinity, but it's clearly different. Math is just spectacularly weird.
One of the reasons why I'm writing what I'm writing is because there are so many people out there whom don't get what infinity is, and most certainly do not understand this place we call reality.
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.
