How many zeros are in infinite?

Answer 1

Have a cheeseburger and think about it!!! No one really knows!!!! ___ Infinite means not finite or not fixed or not determined. We casually think of it as a 'number', because it is most often brought up in some kind of mathematical context. Mathematicians have come up with ways of understanding infinity, but I'm sure no mathematician would ever conclude that infinity is actually a number that can be determined. It would then not be infinite. And of course you could always add one to it. Sometimes our use of the word 'infinite' compounds the problem, and this is a pet peeve. You may hear someone say "There is an infinite number of possibilities", or something similar. [Or much worse, There are an infinite number of possibilities...] I think "infinite number" is a meaningless, contradictory and mis-leading term. I always opt for "infinitely many", which to me suggests an appropriate degree of ambiguity.
