Infinity is an impossibility outside of theoretical, intangible employment (such as mathematics). Let's take a look at why this is.
Say, for example, that I had an infinite number of pennies. If I were to give you half of my pennies, we would each have an infinity. Thus, the equation would be this: Infinity - Infinity = Infinity.
However, if I were to give you all my pennies except for 2, you would have an infinity, while I would have 2. The equation would be this: Infinity - Infinity = 2.
Or, if I were to simply give you all my pennies, the equation would instead be this: Infinity - Infinity = Nothing.
It's theoretically impossible, as its very existence would override any shred of human logic.
