The mind does not "give something infinite." It just imagines things. All of your crackpot claims, for example. Your intellect is FINITE, yet your penchant for the absurd is INFINITE. I guess that's the closest we will get to reaching your level of understanding.
How can something FINITE give something INFINITE?
You never thought of it Ton, did you?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
