AgentAjax: Philosophically does infinity exist? I cannot see how, can someone explain it to me in a logical sense.


Some things just cannot been seen from a human perspective. Can you see thought? Can you understand this phenomenon? What about morals? Can you understand their origin?

Infinity is a state without ending. We live in a world of assumptions. Some of these assumptions can be proven true, some cannot. Some can not be proven either way.

Infinity is a tool used in mathematics and physics to calculate certain outcomes based on certain assumptions.

Humans mostly view things from a linear perspective. But this perspective is floored and not always very accurate. Take time and light for example. Science has now proven that light does not travel at a constant rate (is not linear), time also varies.

Take "carbon dating".... Scientists have found tea kettles in newly formed seams of coal.

There once was a world academic consensus that the world was flat, then we found it to be round. As we progress in knowledge our assumptions of our world and technology change.

Science has been able to prove a parallel time-space continuum exists with our time-space continuum.

Also, NASA had admitted to discovering hidden portals within space time!

Science fiction is becoming science fact day by day!

I think you have been reading too much or watching too many docos. Yes since is progressive and full of assumptions and that’s what it is all about , getting it right.grin

What she said. Everything is circular and cyclic. In my end is my beginning. In my beginning is my end. One flower dies and decays, it fertilises the ground for the next flower to grow. Simple.

Who knows - If you could get there to find out it would be finite :-)

Infinity,, the mystery,, is God.
She both exists and does not exist at the same time.
No heaven or hell, no son, no religious BS.

No, it does not exist.
Because if it did it would be finite.
