Take the example of 1/f noise (i.e, signal). It exist in the physiological data such as heart rate, EEG, eye movements. At what scale you take measurements you still see self similarity.

I have some sort of religious beliefs and sadly I do not dislike this (In fact it's the complete and utter opposite). Your bias should be directed at the hardcore Theists calling science the 'work of the devil'... >.>'

@bohngat But they are mathematical constructions, If you take a snowflake for example there still is a minimum 'resolution' for the fractal which is at the size of the water molecules.

my particles are infinite massive

We are living in a world with the evidence of infinities everywhere, i.e., fractals....

@nessdude14 Yes, this is generally considered as 'undefined'. The question 'three divided by zero yields a quotient of what?' may be recasted as 'the product of a variable and three is what?'.
X*0=3 is clearly undefined as no value of x can make the statement true.

@turbodyzel My guess is that this pissed off some mathematicians. 3/0=infinity is not true.

Are there an infinite number of corpses lining the hallway from the people in some of the larger rooms? I think anyone above 500,000 got screwed during that second move.

@turbodyzel No, mathematicians.

@immrgrunty1363: there is no such thing as dividing a number endless times. You can define infinity as the limit of 3/x as x approaches 0 from the right, but then you are dealing with limits and not regular division. Also, you must explicitly state whether you are coming from the left or right, as in the two cases you end up with + or - infinity (in this case those are different things).
If you define 3/0 in regular division, then regular algebra breaks and you cannot solve anything.
