It is easy to prove that infinity cannot exist. Any finite member of an infinite set is infinitely small compared to an infinitely large member. The contradiction is that a value can be both finite and infinite at the same time. Conclusion: infinity is as bogus as the flat earth hypothesis.

Yes, it’s really that simple to prove that infinity is nonsense, a million mathematicians notwithstanding.

It’s good to see you back. I haven’t heard from you in a while.

All right. Here’s a question for you. If God’s power and intelligence are limited, then what is God’s IQ?


Most philosophers/ESL teachers would be able to shred Mapou's "argument" a bit more decisively than that.  How did that man manage to get a PhD?
