Abstract
Incompleteness theorems of Godel, Turing, Chaitin, and Algorithmic Information Theory have profound epistemological implications. Incompleteness limits our ability to ever understand every observable phenomenon in the universe. Incompleteness limits the ability of evolutionary processes from finding optimal solutions. Incompleteness limits the detectability of machine consciousness. This is an effort to convey these thoughts and results in a somewhat entertaining manner.
