There's a nice poem on this matter Isaac Send a noteboard - 16/08/2011 01:19:57 AM
Some physicists imagine point particles;
Whose diameters are infinitely small.
I’d like to see in their articles
How that differs from not being at all!



To physicists sick with idealism,
“Point-like” particles seem like true realism.
But if they’re infinitely small,
Can they be there at all?
To me these strange views are surrealism.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

Psuedo-scientic metaphysical question thingy about infinity. Plus some other random stuff. - 16/08/2011 12:22:44 AM 531 Views
This kinda hinges on quantum, planck units, and even dark matter - 16/08/2011 12:58:57 AM 432 Views
Ok, I was guessing it would be something like that. - 16/08/2011 01:02:21 AM 486 Views
