the wierd thing is that dude seems to understand that. we all do. apparently he is just really really excited to only define "infinity" the way...
people who understand the difference between counting numbers and infinitely precise ratios. you cant measure a distance in pi, it describes a...
like i said earlier, this is nothing but a pointless redefining of words. like i also said earlier, mathematical infinity is a concept that we do...
wtf are you talking about? creation? straddling a fence? what? jesus christ. i dont think it necessarily can or cannot anything. i do not think...
i didnt, i said over and over i do not know if the universe is infinite or finite. how many times would you like me to repeat it? context. i...
