So I was thinking: Anything that is infinite cannot have a beginning or an end. And, for example, you can't take half of something that is infinite, or any portion for that matter, like one tenth.
Are you with me so far?  The next step, I figure, is to apply it to the human body. Every molecule, atom, or electron in our body has been in existence forever. It seems, therefore, we must be infinite.

This reminds me of a quote from Carl Sagan “We are all stardust” and in that context I agree we are infinite.
