Quote: Relating to my original post, I do consider the possibility that we have experience with infinity. The "uncomfortable" relation with infinity comes as a result of going against 'what we know'.Except that I don't think you're going to be able to demonstrate that any human being has ever had such an experience.
Quote:That requires the assumption that this is all real rather than a product of our awareness. 'Brain in a vat' if you will.Lol, no, it doesn't -and I'm actually a "brain in a vat"er, of sorts myself. Whether it were all real or we were brains in vats (to me, the same proposition btw), we would have to have some mechanism, some system, some way of handling infinity as a variable - if we actually were capable of doing so.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
