'''Infinity''' means unlimited, and impossible to diminish.  Appreciation of infinity is remarkably useful intellectually and even on a personal level.  Some infinities are larger than others, as shown by the mathematician [[Georg Cantor]].

Understanding infinity has advanced many fields, such as [[mathematics]] through [[calculus]], [[set theory]] and [[singularity|singularities]], [[quantum mechanics]] through infinite [[uncertainty]], and [[physics]] through the [[Big Bang]] (infinite [[energy]] density) and the speculative [[black holes]] (infinite mass density).

In addition, recognition of infinity — such as infinite time or infinite strength — is helpful on a personal level in dealing with adversity.  [[Jesus]] often emphasized the concept of infinity in his [[miracle]]s and [[parable]]s.  He rejected the mistaken view of the ancient Greeks that infinity is non-existent and incoherent.<ref>{{cquote|The Ancient Greeks generally conceived of the infinite as formless, characterless, indefinite, indeterminate, chaotic, and unintelligible.
