What I have said is that there are sequences which are uncountable.
What your responders have said is that is like saying there are
triangles with four sides.
/Of course/, if your definition of "four" is the number 5, and your
definition of "triangle" is any polygon; then such a statement would
make sense, and would even be true.
However since we cannot read your mind, and the standard definitions
of "sequence" and "uncountable" are not compatible with the statement
"there are sequences which are uncountable", you have either said
something that is false, or no one else but you can claim to know
whether you are making a mathematical statement at all as opposed to
just babbling incoherently.
