Because False Implies Anything
Theorem: There is a finite number of prime numbers
Proof: assume there is a finite number of primes, p1, p2, p3, …, pn, with pn being the largest. Consider (p1 x p2 x p3 x … x pn) + 1, this number has no prime divisors and is greater than pn, making it the exception that proves the rule. QED.
