They contradict the way in which I perceive the universe. Certainly you don't deny that all results are highly dependent on the methods you use to test them. It's possible, and examples abound, to get an ostensibly valid result even if you feed in garbage data. To my puny plebeian brain that is incapable of perceiving infinity, 0.999… = 1 is one such example. Lim(n->inf) is placing an arbitrary limit on something that is by definition limitless. If you still don't get it then I won't bother responding again. This is getting very tiring.
EDIT: There is some good, if chaotic, discussion here if you wish to read:

I'm not responsible for anything anybody says there, so don't come back here with examples of faulty reasoning trying to refute me. I haven't even read most of it, but it is uncensored discussion.
