Therefore <math>a</math> is not in the list, so we have a contradiction and our assumption is false, the numbers in <math>[0,1]</math> are not countable. Therefore <math>\mathbb{R}</math> is uncountable.<ref>A. N. Kolmogorov, ''Introductory Real Analysis''. ISBN 978-0486612263.</ref>

However, diagonalization argues that no greatest idea can exist: quite bluntly, God is infinite, therefore He can be diagonalized to produce an even greater infinite.<ref>''Topo-philosophies: Plato's Diagonals, Hegel's Spirals, and Irigaray's Multifolds'', Arkady Plotnitsky.
