Many believe the cosmos is infinite. Indeed this is certainly a possibility as we look out into space and realize how insignificant we really are. Recently in an online think tank forum a member pitched the thought, which is somewhat a reflection of Carl Sagans ideas, that indeed the cosmos is infinite. He further went on to say that the human mind could not understand this for it was finite.

The cosmos and its potential to be infinite is a plausible theory, I do not deny it. To say the human mind cannot comprehend it is to limit ones self. I certainly do not pretend to be all knowing by any means, but one should not be so short sided that they could not understand it, if it were explained to them correctly. I therefore completely disagree, but that is a debate for another time and place of course.

But is the human mind really finite? How could one judge that? How would one know and what is the definition of finite in the context of a human mind? Who is to say that the human mind is finite? Isnt someone who believes such, making it finite by limiting their thoughts? Then indeed they would be correct, simply because they believed it to be so. Do you believe the Cosmos is infinite? Do you believe the human mind is finite? What are your thoughts on this? Think on this in 2006.
