A theory that predicts infinities is wrong.
"In virtually every area of the physical sciences, infinity is an embarrassment. It also explains that all the phenomenal world or universe is simply a Mental Creation of THE ALL, subject to the Laws of Created Things, and that the universe, as a whole, and in its parts or units, has its existence in the Mind of THE ALL, in which Mind we “live and move and have our being." This Principle embodies the truth that “All is Mind.” It explains that THE ALL (which is the Substantial Reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of “The Material Universe” the “Phenomena of Life” “Matter” “Energy” and, in short, all that is apparent to our material senses) is SPIRIT, which in itself is UNKNOWABLE and UNDEFINABLE, but which may be considered and thought of as A UNIVERSAL, INFINITE, LIVING MIND. “THE ALL is MIND the Universe is Mental.” -THE KYBALION “THE ALL is MIND the Universe is Mental.” -THE KYBALION This Principle embodies the truth that “All is Mind.” It explains that THE ALL (which is the Substantial Reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of “The Material Univ The following are quotes that made me resonate with the author's writing and my thoughts on topics he covered on the philosophical portion of the book while the part dealing with the mathematics is pretty straight forward. The following are quotes that made me resonate with the author's writing and my thoughts on topics he covered on the philosophical portion of the book while the part dealing with the mathematics is pretty straight forward. He argues that working with infinity is not just an abstract, intellectual exercise but that it is instead a concept with important practical everyday applications, and considers how mathematicians use infinity and infinitesimals to answer questions or supply techniques that do not appear to involve the infinite. In this Very Short Introduction, Ian Stewart discusses infinity in mathematics while also drawing in the various other aspects of infinity and explaining some of the major problems and insights arising from this concept. But there are many others, for example Fourier analysis and fractals. The most obvious, and the first context in which major new techniques depended on formulating infinite processes, is calculus. Many vital areas of mathematics rest upon some version of infinity. Philosophers and mathematicians ranging from Zeno to Russell have posed numerous paradoxes about infinity and infinitesimals. Cosmologists consider sweeping questions about whether space and time are infinite. The infinitely large (infinite) is intimately related to the infinitely small (infinitesimal). Its history goes back to ancient times, with especially important contributions from Euclid, Aristotle, Eudoxus, and Archimedes. Cosmologists conside Infinity is an intriguing topic, with connections to religion, philosophy, metaphysics, logic, and physics as well as mathematics.
