But a segment that is infinite in length is, by definiton, missing at 
least on end.

That end isn't "infinite", it doesn't have an end in that direction.

You might notionally call that end "infinity", but that isn't its end, 
and it would be an "open" end for that segment (as infinity isn't a 
finite number, so isn't an element of any segment of finite numbers).

So, all you are doing is showng that you don't understand what you are 
talking about, and just making up shit to try to sound like you do.

This just show why your logic has blown itself up into smithereens from 
its contradictions, since you can't follow the definitions of real math.


So, which bijection from Cantor are you talking about? Of are you 
working on a straw man that Cantor never talked about?
