I think this is where your understanding departs from science's current, best understanding. There are many discussions on these boards regarding the fact that a singularity is a mathematical "expression" only, and in fact cannot exist in reality.

If you really want insight into black holes, check out Kip Thorne's excellent book, Black Holes and Time Warps, Einstein's Outrageous Legacy [1994]
