Nagual Numbers: A Critique of the Transfinite in 5 Acts

Authors: Lukas Saul

We are transported to the infinite hotel via processes unknown and find a way to discuss with Georg Cantor himself the cardinality of infinite sets. Using Cantor's first theorem we enumerate the numbers between zero and one, and discover that Cantor's second theorem has not been proven with the rigor we expected and the diagonalization proof fails spectacularly for certain representations. However Cantor has the last laugh. Later we visit the large but finite hotel and discover that transcendental numbers of certain classes are in fact countable, and that uncountable infinites are only created by the addition of a class of numbers or objects we describe as nagual.
