It merely shows us where our limit is.              We can assume such a god is this contraption that traps us       and is us and knows numbers that have infinite potentials       yet just as well infinity is not a number.              To the right of a decimal point, if a number extends without end,       and is infinite in that dimension on a line in a given reality, then,       to know the infinite in a finite Way, we may.              - like the radical two fer example ...
