Here you are: i + 3i = 4i

Saying it's hypothetical doesn't mean you can ignore logic when thinking within the hypothetical framework. You still need to try to form logical conclusions based on the assumptions you give.

Hey, what's that up there... it looks like my point! Wow, that is quite a distance up... certainly high enough to be going over your head.

Just so we're clear, you can travel as far as you want and you'll never make two things that are parallel cross.
Don't tell me what infinite means when I already demonstrated I do completely know what it means. We can rule out "infinitely short" for this case; there we'd be essentially taking the limit as the distance goes to 0, indicating the universes exist in the same exact place. Infinitely large distance is possible, but I'm saying not necessarily true. It could just as easily be any other distance. Now that last sentence I never disputed. But you can travel between two parallel planes by taking the z-direction, (assuming the planes are oriented x-y) so why can't you do the same with more than three?

Now, that's not proof. I realize. But... I'm not the one trying to prove anything by this thread; you are. And you seem to keep masking your own lack of proof by asking disputers for theirs.

I'm not. Who said I was? You started this thread for a discussion, and a discussion I'll give. Just because it isn't "OMG you're so smart, OSS Spy!" Doesn't mean I'm trying to be mean.

Ever hear that one song? Goes something like:

"You're so vain... you probably think this song is about you, don't you?"

I believe what I believe, and keep it to myself unless I feel that I can actually back it up with evidence.
