Sorry if my question is non specific, but I will try to specify here. If a black hole has a singularity with truly infinite gravity, and gravity gets weaker with distance, then isn’t it impossible to divide/subtract a number from infinity, without that number being zero or inifnity, but we know we can’t do that anyways, so whats the deal, shouldn’t the gravitational energy that is supposedly infinite, continue radiating into space, destroying space time in it’s wake? Or are singularities truly not infinite gravity? Sorry if this sounds stupid, I am simply trying to understand this as the average joe.
