Of course, in particular if you teach him about Santa Claus and his
red nosed reindeer. He may be willing to accept that the matrix
1
2,1
3,2,1
...
contains |N in every column, but in no line, although it is clear that
bothing can be in a column, unless it is in a line - together with all
its predecessors.
The union of all natural numbers is |N.
Already the sequence 1, 2, 3, ... contains an entry *for all n*.
Also {1}, {2}, {3}, ... as well as its union contain all natural
numbers, the union being |N.
The union over all FISONs
{1} U {1, 2} U {1, 2, 3} U ... is |N too.
Somehow this union manages to contain more than all FISONs contain,
because all n are in the union but not all n are in the FISONs.
All this can be taught to a five-year-old and not too bright child.
But how can it be that thousands of matheologians, who successfully
spread the impression of being intelligent and committed to logic,
believe in such self-contradictory trash?
