Author:Hector C. Parr
Description: A paper that points out how few philosophers and scientists have paid much attention to the concept of infinity, and expresses surprise at the readiness with which the idea has been accepted as meaningful even in fields where it causes serious logical difficulties. The author tries to show that belief in a universe containing an infinite number of material objects is logically flawed, and examines the cosmological consequences.
