Re: Today's Bad Math brought to you by NJ
I'm not sure what you think that means. 1/x never evaluates to zero.
I dunno. Where you talking about the summation of 1/x as x -> infinity? Because the limit of that function is 1, not zero, and again, you can never actually reach 1 because you can't evaluate for x = infinity, since infinity isn't actually a number.
Either I'm missing something or what you are saying is wrong. 1/x is unbounded at all points other that Zero. as 1/x where X gets larger without limit 1/x gets smaller and approaching zero.
ie: X=2 1/x=1/2
x=1000 1/x =1/1000
X=GOOGAL 1/X=1/GOOGAL
X-GOOGALPLEX 1/X=1/GOOGALPLEX
X=GOOGALPLEX**GOOGALPLEX 1/X=1/GOOGALPLEX**GOOGALPLEX
thus 1/x as x increases without limit 1/x approaches zero

Re: science and creation are not unresolved
Day one...light
Day two...heaven
Day three...all things green and seed bearing
Day four... the seasons are set in motion
Day five...all things that swim or fly
Day six... all things that walk...including us
Except that the order is completely wrong.
If by heaven you mean the universe it would be first if you mean the mythical resting place, irrelevant
Light would follow with the formation of stars, seasons before any life.
seed bearing plants would come after swimming & walking and some flying creatures. Walking before flying. Just from the relationships of living things, your list is completely wrong.
