I was thinking, rather, of matters like the relationship between time and eternity.....

On the heavy side for me. I remember once reading a book by PD Ouspensky, which dealt with such matters. After 100 pages I was thinking "wow, this is really amazing". After 300 pages I was thinking "...but who gives a shit?"

I didn't finish the book.

The relationship between time and eternity is in no passing way analogous to the relationship between number and infinity. These things can be dome full justice in mundane terms. I am fascinated by people's capacity to go from lean fare like this and infer a God.
