Why Infinity Is Not A Number

     Greeting, I hope you are doing well, and you are in peace!!!!

     How often when we use numbers, and want to get the highest number do we say "infinity?" I mean for example let's say Jeff is arguing with Beth, and Beth says "You're dumb times ten" and Jeff replies "Well you're dumb times Infinity" The thing about infinity is it's not a real number, and here is the reason why if infinity was a real number it would mean that numbers end; in other words you can't go any higher than that number, but no matter how high of a number any person can think of you can always get one number higher by simply adding one thus making it imposable to ever have a highest number, so in other words imposable for infinity to exist as an actual number.

     So does that make infinity obsolete? Well no, because you can still use it in some cases to be a substitute word for forever, for instance you can say "Jim signed a contract to work for Phil for an infinity amount of years" which would be the same as saying "Jim signed a contract to work for Phil forever." Another word you can use infinity in place of is eternity, for example you can say "THE LORD is live for infinity" which would be the same as saying "THE LORD will live for eternity."

     So in closing, infinity is not a number, because if it was than numbers would end, but we all know that know matter how high of a number you can always get a higher number by adding one, so infinity is not a number, but infinity can be used in place of words like forever, and eternity making it not disused.

Thank you for your time,
I love you all infinity,
your friend,
VPK!!!!
