Check your math.

Quite right.
As I pointed out earlier, it wasnt even invented until relatively recently in mathematical terms.
If I had no apples, why would I waste my time writing anything?
The concept of a numerical representation of 'nothing' is fairly advanced thinking.

just like black is not a colour. it is the absence of light waves.
you cannot count something that isn't there.
"If the Bible is an inspired Book as it claims to be, are not its numbers as well as its words inspired? One of its books is called 'Numbers'. . . One out of every five Scriptures in the Bible contains a number. . .The Bible is a book from beginning to end that is built upon a vast system of numbers which is interwoven with the doctrines of the Word of God."
(Ed F. Vallowe, Biblical Mathematics, p. 20)
One example of the Bible's unique meanings to numbers, is the dreaded number 666 – the mark of the Beast, mentioned in Revelation 13:18.
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Revelation 13:18
The Bible clearly associated the number SIX with man. Rev. 13:18 reads ". ..for it is the number of a man. . "
This number-six-man correlation is found throughout the Bible.

six is carbon. and yet, as my avatar shows, a three dee cube in two dee, is a hexagram. the codes of life are hexed.
perhaps this is why 'hex' was demonised by the inquisitions. as pope leo X said, 'the truth isn't for every man.', as he hacked out passages he didn't like.

the biblical mathematics continues. the number seven is woven in there just as the six is. pretty unreal.
Where is the 7 funky?
genealogy of the messiah as given in the gospel of matthew 1 :2-17.
beenly divisible by seven (with no remainders)
the number of letters must be divisible by seven
the number of vowels and consonants must be divisible by seven
the number of words that begin with a vowel must be divisible by seven
the number of words that begin with a consonant must be divisible by seven
the number of words that occur more than once, must be divisible by seven
the number of words that occur in more than one form must be divisible by seven
the number of words that occur only in one form must be divisible by seven
the number of names in the genealogy must be divisible by seven
the number of male names must be divisible by seven
and the number of generations in the genealogy must be divisible by seven
would it not be next to impossible to draw up such a genealogy? yet this describes exactly the beenly divisible by seven (with no remainders)
