0 andromeda Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 What if you have an almost endless supply of food? Where's the paradox? Am I missing something? Elaborate please... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Ermmm... you have an ALMOST endless supply of food... ,But that means you have infinity - 1 amount of food.... but that means if you get one more piece, you have an endless supply, and if you eat one it'll go back to what you had, not making it a technical "endless" supply. But if you still have one, it'll still go to an endless supply, yet not an endless supply.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It don't think the alleged paradox has to do with the definition of infinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
