30 mathematical geniuses have committed suicide trying to solve the equation of infinity. They became obsessed and so have I. How can something exist that has no beginning or no end...no start and no finish. For those who it is too hard to comprehend, think of the concept of God.

The only thing I know about infinity and all the concept behind it is that when any human being actually manages to grasp the outer layers of this subject and actually start getting their mind to another level they are usually considered crazy by the rest of the shitty humans and end dying with all that knowledge.

[Anonymous No.5945346]

Think of the universe as a circle, or doughnut shape if you will. There is no start, nor end. Neither for space or time. Eternity is the concept of infinite time and it is real, as there was no start and there will be no end. It is literally impossible for something to come from nothing and therefore it can only have always been there whilst never being there and always be there whilst never being there. This existence is cray.

The philosophical meanings of our existence are however too hard to comprehend. Infinity can be included in this. This is partly due to the fact that existence is questionable, and also the fact that we have a limited perspective, not just on our planet, or in our corner of space, but also we are limited by our human form including the brain. Everything that we are aware of that has ever happened and is happening is just our own brains perspective, and not one man can know any different. If I told you that you ARE the universe, that it is all on you're head, you would Beleive it after a while as your knowledge is limited to that of your own brain.

If the brain were so simple that we could understand it, we would be too simple to understand it.

The doughnut idea represents a continuous space rather than say a big square for example. If you think you know about the universe feel free to tell.. You can't just disagree with an opinion without your own opinion, you dick.

A simpler example, a sphere, can technically be represented as a plane where as you travel a very large distance from the origin the points eventually "meet at infinity". A circle can be represented as a number line where "at infinity" the reals "wrap" around.

But I'm positive that isn't what you meant, and technically that's not the same kind of infinity.

[Anonymous No.5945412]

>>5945401

There's nothing to contribute in a discussion about the "equation of infinity", that doesn't even make sense.

Infinity is a useful mathematical structure already applied practically by people much smarter than me. There are interesting interpretations and variations of the concept, but nobody is driving themselves insane trying to "understand" infinity except you because you're dumb.

[Anonymous No.5945414]

>>5945410
Of course it's not the same kind of infinity. The doughnut idea is pretty much the same thing though, as in you can travel through either/any plane and keep going. No need to be a dick is there,

[Anonymous No.5945418]

>>5945412
I'm not dumb, nor a genius. I can also accept other people's opinions unlike your close-minded self. I was just throwing ideas, not seriously trying to explain or understand infinity. Also if you didn't guess from my first post, I'm high. I enjoy to philosophise anyway, and study neuroscience which isn't a dumb degree.

You sound like a pretentious asshole.

Pssshhhh. Why are you trying to make it out like I'm seriously trying to be smart and even think I'm right, I've reiterated that its ideas, for fun. I'm not stupid, if you honestly are that close minded you are the stupid one my friend.

Also, 'come down'? I'm not 12 mate I can think straight when I'm high.

It's not closed-minded to know something which is definitive.
There is no 'equation of infinity,' nor any math problem that kills.
Being ignorant of the topic is not being open-minded.

>I was just throwing ideas, not seriously trying to explain or understand infinity.
Perfectly reasonable -- except you didn't suggest anything, you made statements.
Ones that didn't make sense.

>Also if you didn't guess from my first post, I'm high. I enjoy to philosophise anyway, and study neuroscience which isn't a dumb degree.
So let's move the topic to one that supports that kind of thinking --
like, what kind of sense would it take for us to perceive the 4th dimension of space?
or, did the universe actually have a massive expansion, or did something cause space to reduce it's scale suddenly?
or, what do we risk by accepting the concept of shared qualia?

[age No.5945447]

The coolest thing about infinity is that the universe is infinity big just as it's infinity small, and it's ALL ACTIVE.

Think about it, 1/2 /2 /2 /2 /2....there's such a thing as an infinitely small space, that makes up the infinitely expansive, and all this stuff is made up of that infinitely small stuff. MAKING EVERYTHING AWESOME, and complicated.
