Regarding infinite set atheism:
Is the set of "possible landing sites of a struck golf ball" finite or infinite?
In other words, can you finitely parameterize locations in space? Physicists normally model "position" as n-tuples of real numbers in a coordinate system; if they were forced to model position discretely, what would happen?
I can claim to see an infinite set each time I use a ruler...
