The Myth of Infinity: Does Platonism Pave the Stairs to God?

This paper explores the idea of infinity as both a mathematical concept and a metaphysical concept while seeking unity between the two aspects of infinity under Platonist realism. While addressing relevant substitutes of the classical Platonist view of infinity and considering the contemporary revival of Platonism argued by Kurt Gödel alongside recent developments in Mathematical Logic pioneered by Georg Cantor, this paper rationalises the enduring charm of Platonist realism and argues for its unrivalled elegance in explaining the concept of infinity.
