My meta-principle on infinity: Talk about infinities is a shorthand way of talking about limits. If your talk about infinity produces a paradox, you are making a mistake in the way you take the limit. This was worked out the late 19th century for Zeno and similar paradoxes, but it is always and everywhere true.
