No, you were not. You posed a rather poorly fomulated question that had no merit. It is not even close to being an idea.
Your question has no more depth than merely asking how there can be a 0 on the number line despite the fact that there is neither a smallest nor a largest real number.
I noticed there was quite a bit of information, on the Internet, about this question with no depth!
Here is one example from William L. Craig, of the University of Munich, writing in a philosophy journal. He begins by saying that this old argument has been expounded by thinkers such as Kant and that it may be roughly schematized thus:
"If the series of past events is infinite, then an infinite number of events must elapse before the present moment could arrive.
But it is impossible for an infinite number of events to elapse.
Therefore, if the series of past events is infinite, the present moment could not arrive.
But the present moment has arrived.
Therefore,the series of past events cannot be infinite."
I have said, in other posts, that I am simply a layperson with an interest in science.
Maybe I should not have raised this topic in the maths sub forum but the thread was about infinity and threads often wander around a topic and do not always stay true to the original question.
I first asked the question, about the merits of the above argument, ages ago, in an astronomy sub forum thread about the BBT versus the SST. Much later I asked the same question in a Religion sub forum thread. I did not feel the question was answered, in either thread, so I asked the same question here.
I apologise for having put forward a poorly fomulated (sorry formulated) question that had no merit or depth. I did not realise that such a question had to be expressed as if I was presenting a Ph.d thesis on the work of Cantor.
A kid can ask whether space and time are infinite-that does not mean the question is stupid or meaningless!
