being new to this way of thinking , i accepted the mathematical term of infinity. I can somehow grasp it. It's man made you can always add 1 to every number and thats that. I find it absurd to think you can reach the end of that , even if writing down the longest number with a carbon pen you willl reach maybe a point when you run out carbon atoms in this universe. Nature as we define it is what surrounds us, and latest big bang theory would say the universe has a begining. An accumulation of something that bursted into existence. For that i guess there could be a finite state of that something. I mean that accumulation can only generate that much of stuff therefor univese=finite. Mass has an end when it becomes energy , a something that can't be created ? yet as decades pass we still find smaller and smaller stuff that comes into the realm of quantum physics the fun part of science where it might or might not be there but for sure it is or not. Maybe it's just a matter of tools at hand . If you could define a limit to energy i could say there is 1 bit or no bit just as easy . Even if we can find out what energy is , we still have a problem with the fact that it runs on a support called the fabric of space. Our finite universe which from what i ghater is finite since it has a begining and multiple ends, sits on the magical fabric of space time that can;t be probed but only deduced. Thinking of it, even if we probe space-time and figure it out we would still have question what is beyond that, maybe our problem is that we can't understand limits. For me fractals describe best what is nature and therefor the infinity , and the fact we are part of it somewhere lost in a recurrence.Ofcourse that doesn't mean we should relax in a tree and just eat fruits and wait for the end. As for a previous post, maybe mother nature tries to explain itself trough us and other beings that are self aware.
