Ok, so I either had a deep thought or an episode of boredom induced insanity while I was sitting in class the other day.
Mathematical Proof of Human Stupidity:
“If” the universe is infinite, but the number of planets containing intelligent life is finite, then by letting:
x = the number of planets containing intelligent life
y = the size of the universe
Take the ratio of planets with intelligent life to the size of the universe while letting the size of the universe approach infinity.
lim x / y = 0
y → ∞
Proving that no planet contains intelligent life. I realize this theorem is unnecessary for predicting intelligent life on earth, because anybody that has ever been in a public place or watched TV can easily deduce that there is no intelligence in our part of the universe.

Wow, Brilliant theorem. This just expands on Einstein’s quote “There are two things that are infinite, the universe and human stupidity; I’m not so sure about the first one.”
