Infinity counter

This is an attempt to refute one of your claims you made about infinity. Your one about the cards in a deck, there are 2 Jokers, 1 of everything else, therefore if we have an infinite amount of decks, we still have more Jokers than other cards. What if we looked at it differently, suppose rather than saying there is inifinityx2 jokers, where only infinity of everything else, we said that all cards are approaching infinity, the jokers are going up in numbers twice as fast as all of the other cards. What I mean is, rather than already having a definite infinity already there, if we looked at it as a "counting" formulation, we'd see the numbers never end, the Jokers just get counted faster.

RE: Infinity counter

Yes, I see what you mean.
In reality though it is not possible to have an infinite number of anything, as infinity is not a number, it is a description.
