I followed it up with post #68. Show me a physical universe infinity   
I argue against infinity, Darrell.

You have tried to unite a hypothetical mathematical abstraction with a so called physical reality in order to deduce a physical reality conclusion.
I have never said infinity was anything other than hypothetical - your attempt to turn the table on me is one I find rather amusing. What I did say is that we experience the world physically, and that an eternal timelime means an infinite past which prevents our present. I have yet to see this concept challenged in any way, and if this Universe is indeed 18 billion years old (scientists believe it to be 13.7 billion years old, just so you know) than we are addressing a finite Universe, hence why this present exists, as nothing infinite or eternal preceeds it.

I used deflection tactics in an attempt to avoid counter arguing the point.
You are using 'deflection tactics' to avoid addresing a question for which you have no answer to provide.

According to Albert Einstein, all matter is in "reality" slowed down energy. That btw is the meaning of his famous equation E = mc^2.
And the denial that matter exists in what Einstein said is.. where, exactly? Did he just not offer an explanation for 'the reality' of matter with these words? Have I not already addressed that matter contains energy?

I enjoy picking at straws, too.

And I am smilling broadly at the moment.  

Infinity is a math concept. Perhaps it should stay there
Math, as a convention, excludes infinity, actually, as it is unmeasurable. Infinity is a philosophical construct.
