I am an absolute zero when it involves higher mathematics, or for that matter, even intermediate or beginning mathematics. Nevertherless I do have a question that I feel is legitimate.


Einstein had a problem with quantum mechanics. While he acknowleged its proven capability of making accurate predictions, he felt, that in some way it was incomplete. This arose from quantum's prediction of what he called "spooky action at a distance," Quantum entanglement. Perhaps this problem could also extend to his own theories. Now, the question....


In the basic formulation of the structure of quantum mechanics, is the actual existence of an infinitely small point or an infinitely short measure of length recognized to actually exist? If the answer is yes, the existence of an infinitely large volume or an infinitely long line must also exist. I can't mentally buy either of these conclusions though, of course, one can always approach infinity, large or small, but one will never reach either.


I would appreciate any comments but, please, Keep it simple.
