[QUOTE="TimeWizardCosmo, post: 11561, member: 2"] [b]Movement is an illusion?[/b] I remember back in highschool we had this really weird science teacher. I'm going to try and explain things the way he did, but I might screw it up. I'm a graphic designer, not a physicist :D Say you have a line segment: [img]http://www.hoytroid.com/ttf/ab.gif[/img] Now, everyone learns in geometry that a line segment has an infinite number of points within itself. Given this, imagine that you were standing at point A, and that you wanted to get to point B. To do this, you would have to traverse an infinite number of points. Given the definition of the word infinite: It should be impossible to move from point A to point B because there are an unlimited number of points between the two. If there was a such thing as "infinity", you could never traverse all given points since they are, well... Infinite. The only way you could possibly move from one point to another is if infinity did not exist. *sigh* I really hope I explained this right.... [/QUOTE]
