Re: what do y'all think? (the atheism thread)
With Planck-length precision, froopy hits the nail on the head. Based on our current understanding of quantum physics, the infinity of the coastline paradox is merely conceptual, not physical. Yes, it's still a consciousness-raiser of a paradox - but as a way to demonstrate the physical existence of infinity within our Universe, it's useless.
