I would guess that your notion of "true infinity" is causing some confusion 
here, as I imagine that most of the people you're talking to are interpreting 
the word "infinite" as meaning precisely "not finite".  At least that's how I 
use the word.
This is an example of how unacknowledged differences in terminology can cause 
much unnecessary disagreement.  I think greater precision should be strived 
for.
