Do you guys believe this?

So the earth is has infinite depth as well?  I'm so confused.

imo, the earth is of infinite width and depth.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. I think we're not using the same co-ordinate system... OK, lets define X as parallel to a trip from East to West, Y as parallel a North - South trip, and Z as directly into the ground. Which two are infinite? I think you mean X and Y are infinite, correct, because if Z is, Sokarul is right.

Two dimensions of the 3 spacial dimensions are infinite.

Width as X
Depth as Y
Height as Z

Re-read my X-Y-Z post, Username is using a different co-ordinate system than you are, which is why I like to define my co-ordinates.

Oh, and by the way, Username, it does matter, because if it were just the other way, than we would experience infinite gravity, which wouldn't be fun.

No, but since I defined Z as pointing into the ground, so that would mean that we would have to go to the other side of the Earth, follow? So, yes, A civilization could exist, but not with the definition that Z points straight into the ground from any place I stand.

If so, I get PET now

I don't understand what you are talking about;  a civilization?

Well, what I'm saying is since I defined Z as pointing to the ground from our perspective...never mind...

Ok.  Thats fine.  But what I said wasn't incorrect; that is all I'm trying to say.

That and sok is wrong and a failure.

So you mean LENGTH and width?  Depth is not length.

Depth is fine to use there.   

Depth: extent downward or backward or inward;
Height: distance from the base of something to the top
Width: the extent of something from side to side

Again, you fail at your native language.

depth      /dɛpθ/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[depth] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
1.   a dimension taken through an object or body of material, usually downward from an upper surface, horizontally inward from an outer surface, or from top to bottom of something regarded as one of several layers.

Infinity cannot have depth as it doesn't have a surface anywhere. 

Infinite volume=infinite mass=infinite gravity

Correct (I'd give you a gold star but I'd have to take it away again because this was not the point being made by username), a hypothetical planar object can have a limited depth whilst having an infinite length and breadth however.

Yes, his model can have a finite depth because he meant infinite length and width.

Right, so why wouldn't there be a surface across the 2 ∞ dimensional model he speaks of or are you just stating the obvious by blarging out infinity has no surface like a hobo at the corner of a street for the hell of it?

Sokorul, please stop spamming serious threads...

American Heritage
   1. The extent, measurement, or dimension downward, backward, or inward
Princeton
   S: (n) depth, deepness (the extent downward or backward or inward)


I did not mean length and width.  Depth and Width is fine.  It denotes two dimensions that are infinite.  It doesn't matter which two.  Whether or not it has a surface is irrelevant.

Please stop with your inane and ultimately useless arguments attacking, ironically and hypocritically, grammar, word choice, and syntax rather than content.  I don't even see why you are allowed here.

it most certainly does matter which to dimensions you are talking about.  If the earth was infinite depth below us, then gravitation by mass is impossible like I said.(although its still impossible with an infinite anything.)

This grammatical error brightens my day every time you make it.  How can you possibly be in college and still not know the difference between 'to', two' and 'too'?

I know you don't.  That's what makes it so funny.
