  • Well here is my answer to a very similar question: There are many who could have the crown of greatest logistician - but my vote is for Goedel Goedel showed that math is forever incomplete - that there will always be theorems that are never proved. The way he did this was extrodinary ... he systematically numbered theorems and proofs, and produced arithmetic which could check if a certain proof number proved a certain theorem number. Then he showed the existance of a number which when turned back into a theorem comes out as "I am a theorem for which there is no proof"!
  • We don't know because all time has not passed yet.

  • I agree with Quirkie that the title belongs to Kurt Gödel. If God exists, God is #2. Others in the top ten would include Aristotle, Frege, Tarski, Church, Russell, and Kripke.
