Nothing in set theory talks about the equivalence of properties of the infinite set to the properties of the finite sets that you are trying to "take the limit of". Sorry, you are just showing your ignorance of how logic actually works, and ard just spouting off buzz words that you tnink make it sound like you know what you are talking about, but you clearly don't.
