ANNOTATION:
Is infinity a prime number?
I think that it is a prime number because it can be divided by itself and one but no other number. For example you can't divide infinity by 2 because you don't know the end of infinity.

The flaw with your reasoning is that infinity is not a number, it's just a concept. So you cannot apply the same rules that you would with normal mathamatics. This is the same thing is the letter i. It doesn't work the same way as normal numbers, and certain extent 0 does not behave like other numbers, for example you cannot divide by zero.
