| Zenos Paradox , and why you will never finish reading this page | |||||||||||||||||
|
���� Suppose you are traveling from point A to point B. To reach B, you must first travel half the distance. Once you have arrived at the mid-point, you must then travel half the remaining distance. But once you have arrived at the mid-point of the remaining distance, you still have to travel half the remaining distance. | ����In fact, this goes on forever. Since it takes some time, no matter how small,to travel half of any given distance, and since the remaining distance can always be divided , it will therefore take you an infinite amount of time to travel from A to B. In short, it is impossible to ever reach B. ���� Be warned though, not everybody will accept this. I was once fired from a job for using Zenos Paradox as my reason for not showing up.
