I can hear this post in their voices. Maybe I’ve seen the movie too many times…nah

    You’re talking about countable infinities vs uncountable infinities, but you’re proving my point. Order is a countable infinity, disorder is an uncountable infinity. You’ve just abstracted yourself into a corner.

      sigh, very well then.

      Consider the set of real numbers, which is an uncountable infinity. Notice how this infinite set does not contain any grapes.

      It’s not rocket science

        Grapes and real numbers are both finite distinctions of a shared infinitely ordered set, which itself is part of an infinitely disordered set. Numbers are an infinitely ordered set that do not contain grapes. Grapes are part of many finite sets that are also part of an infinitely ordered set. Both exist within disordered and ordered sets as well. You’re not describing limitations of the infinite like you think you are. You’re only describing the limitations of your understanding of the infinite.
