Dave,

You'll notice I added a last line to my post while you were posting a response.

I am not finding fault. I'm simply stating a case for going beyond the limit that is holding us back.

–10^infinite–1(any number) is the problem. No matter how small (large) the assumption, it can not be said to be absolutely rigorous.

I am not so unfamiliar with science, that I can't say it does not deal with infinity rigorously.

All present references to absolute or infinite in mathematics are false. They are conveniences that can never represent reality. If mathematics or physics can not represent reality, then they are limited.

To hold them "on high" is no better than someone who holds their religion up as the truth.

We have to recognize our limits to go beyond them and we won't get to a TOE without going beyond our present limits.

This doesn't just apply to science, but philosophy and religions as well.

The intitial thing that all of these disciplines are lacking, is a non-axiomatic proof of an Absolute.
