“your belief that humans can think about infinities at all is predicated upon the assumption (which can only be taken on faith) that the symbol you manipulate relates to reality and its infinities at all.”
Seems like one of those fully general counter arguments about the limits of knowledge. “your belief that humans can think about [X] at all is predicated upon the assumption (which can only be taken on faith) that the symbol you manipulate relates to reality and its [X] at all.”
It is almost a fully general counter argument. It argues against all knowledge, but to different degrees. You can at least compare the references of symbols to finite calculations that you have already done within your own head, and then use Occam’s Razor.
Not sure what you mean by this...
