I'd like to interject here with something I've been thinking about for awhile. Could it be possible that zero is infinite since it is infinitely smaller than the smallest number? Zero is complete absence of whatever and a complete absence of something is a whole lot of nothing, if you catch my drift.
zero is a famous infinite limit, constant/x
it is limit as a denomiator gets larger and larger.

theres no such thing as a numerical infinity, it makes no sense, it has to be a conceptual thing, always increasing... because even arbitrarily large numbers can have one added to them.

Simply put, the term infinity refers to a limitless, never ending, and increasing amount.
yea, so, if this amount increases faster, than it is greater at any given point, meaning that it is greater.

Quote from: "fathomak"I think this is a better question:
Which is larger, the set of all positive real integers, or the set of all primes?
How can infinity be greater than infinity? It's not even a number, really...
One infinity can be greater than another, comparitive in the rate that the two infinities rise.
for example, lim as x->infinity (x) is simply infinity, but lim as x-infinity (2x^2) reaches infinity faster, so it is said to be greater.

Quote from: "CrimsonKing"I don't attack atheism, I don't see the reason why you feel that attacking Christianity is so important, but whatever floats your boat.
Well, I think he can attack it for the sake of the attack... I don't believe anybody's viewpoints ought to be exempt from criticism, and I don't think people should ever "just agree to disagree".
That said, maybe he has a good reason for attacking Christianity. Maybe he thinks it's dangerous to somebody, such as society as a whole, or religious individuals, and that therefore it behooves right-thinking people to put a stop to it.
I completely agree, the only thing is, we've been over the same ideas at least four or five times now, without getting anywhere, so we know it's not going to go anywhere... so what is the point?

I have my reason to believe in God, it just makes sense to me, if it doesn't to you... well ok, whatever. I don't attack atheism, I don't see the reason why you feel that attacking Christianity is so important, but whatever floats your boat.
Oh, and I agree with Dys, there is really no reason to redo this discussion. So this will be the last I write on the subject, unless something important comes out.

The Earth is accelerating up, they stay at a constant velocity, therefore they must also be accelerating at the same rate

that is why you use the infinite geometric serier
9(1/10^1)+9(1/10^2)+9(1/10^3)+.....
=(9*1/10)/(1-1/10)
this of course, equals 1
go Algebra
9(1/10^1)+9(1/10^2)+9(1/10^3)+.....
=(9*1/10)/(1-1/10)

Flat Earth Q&A / government benifits from a flat earth
« on: November 06, 2006, 02:42:26 PM »
Governments get a vast amount of money in the idea that the Earth is round, think of all the space programs of the world. All these get INSANE amounts of funding, to go to the moon, and develop this and that and the other thing. now if the Earth is actually flat, then that is not possible, hence, trillions of dollers are going to the government. There are other motives, but you can use the search function to find those if you dont believe me.
You put an embargo on a country to punish them, they broke the worldwide gov'tal conspiracy, they will be punished by sanctions upon the country. If they were to say that, you could make the point that they were spreading ignorance among their people, and given the amount of international policing that goes on today, something would probably come of that too.

Quote from: "CrimsonKing"No, it also doesnt make it irrational. It makes it a matter of insanity.
first of all, you need to write that you changed the quote, in order to not misrepresent me.
Second of all, how does believing in something larger than yourself that you can never have proof for or against make something insane. I'm pretty sure that is as close to the operative definition of faith as one could get.

Unless said proof is mathematical, because then it would not be widely-accepted opinion, but rather mathematical fact.
