which gets us to the problem. If we can see it fixed and complete, it 
wasn't infinite which must go on to infinity, which we can not perceive.

"Complete" or "Actual" infinity is not something we finite beings can 
handle or perceive, so trying to use "logic" on it doesn't work, because 
the logic is too limited.

Your ignorance of that fact is what has blown your mind to smithereens.
