What statement of mine do you construe as expressing doubts about
"cantor"?

It is perfectly possible, of course, to conceive all sorts of
interesting and coherent alternative conceptions of mathematics -- as
illustrated by ultra-finitism, predicativism, intuitionism, various
flavours of constructivism, ... -- if one does not find set theoretic
reasoning and concepts congenial. Alas, your erratic rambling does not
constitute such an alternative view.

There is also no reason why anyone should take any interest in your
outpouring, let alone "counter" it in some way, though for some
unfathomable reason many people in the news seem to find that an
extremely important undertaking, perhaps in attempt to protect the
innocent, lest they be led astray.

sometimes you attack me , sometimes you defend me ...

While your "arguments" against set theory are asinine, the responses
they elicit from various persons are sometimes equally silly. My
commenting on such silliness does not imply any sort of endorsement of
your brand of inanity.
