Mar 25, 2011 at 20:31 comment added godelian There is a categorical proof by Joyal, though it does use self-referential ideas. It makes use of arithmetic universes, which he introduced in the 70's. Their categorical structure supports the construction of internal categories providing internal copies of themselves, just the amount of self-reference needed to perform Cantor's diagonal argument. An abstract can be found at A. Joyal., The Gödel incompleteness theorem, a categorical approach. Cahiers de topologie et géometrie différentielle categoriques, 16(3), 2005.
