Infinitely Finite?

Is there unlimited of things? Or it’s just misconception?

Have a look on a set of all the facts in the universe. We can make possible combinations (permutations) of it, and the combination may vary (seemingly - approaching) infinitely, but it’s just a concept (potential). In reality there is only a certain (limited) number.

  • Like this: N{umeric) = {0,1,2,,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}
  • This creates combination such as = {0,1}, {0,1,1} etc, ... it looks like approaching infinitely

Practically it is limited, potentially also not unlimited. That's why I use the term "approaching" (seeming as if) unlimited.

Whether in practice (actual) or conceptual (potential) or in any case, there is no infinity. There is only "NOT LIMITED BY"

  • Axiom: something can’t transcend beyond itself without additional assertion

If there is an infinite set, then the boundary can be expanded beyond itself without the addition of the other which is an impossibility (violating the axiom)

Therefore: there is no infinite, there is onlyNOT LIMITED BY
