the distance is not infinite. after all they are two given points. although the distance can de infinitely divisible, but the distance remains the same. it is just the property of magnification. we can go on and on dividing a line segment into two, one of those parts into two, another one of those parts into two..... and so on....we can get to the smallest and smallest parts, but the greatest distance remains the same. adding up all the smaller parts we will always reach the same conclusion, because the distance is finite.

yes distant is the same thing as time and yes you can divide both an infinite number of times. everything is infinite. i like your thinking

No its measurable. Your telling me that your measuring the distance thats concrete, now you could divide that number while it will not ever be zero it will approach zero indefinatly so you can say it is zero.
