Cute, golden and supergolden ratios and all. The big question still remains: Are there an infinite number of primes in the series?

It must be so. The set of Fibo's is non-repeating, non-terminating, and infinite. If the set of primes is also infinite, they both belong to the set Aleph-Null and are equal in size. It wont collect every prime but it will collect an infinitude of them.

Quite possible. But you utilize the choice function which isn't universally accepted as true.

That would be the rational choice.

Nay. You should have faith. It is infinite.
