0.99999999999... = 1

Polymathematics: No, I'm Sorry, It Does.
Ok, my entire worldview has been shattered. Nothing makes sense anymore. I've read the proofs and the comments and scoured the math geek forums, and apparently, 0.9 repeating = 1.
I'm pretty sure this means the rapture is coming upon us, and if it's not, it damn well should be.
I am a defeated man.
I'm not sure why this is distressing me as much as it is. Perhaps it's because I'm logical, or perhaps it's because math hurts my head and I don't really grasp the concept of infinite. In any case, I hope the world doesn't end, but if the cosmos doesn't straighten this bullshit out, I may have to jump start the apocalpyse.
