[25] See A. T. Cameron, “Radio-Chemistry,” p. 17: “The curves illustrate two further points. They approach constant value towards the end of a month, but it is seen that they reach a final value only at infinite time. This property is common to all such curves; it illustrates the fact that the life of a radio-active element is infinite.” It is explained in the same book (p. 31) that “infinity is only a relative term; in this connection it only means a longer time than we can measure.”
[26] His theology is not so good as his mathematics; he seems to think that in the Creed we assert our belief in the Incomprehensible, in the sense of that which is “not capable of being seized by the mind,” instead of in that which is “untrammelled by limitations.” The word is immensus, best translated infinite.
