Since 0 is Less than 1, you are sort of correct, but that fact doesn't 
prove your claim.

The problem is that when you get to *ALL* you are now talking abut 
infinite mathematics, which your logic just can't handle, because you, a 
finite being, can't do all of an infinite set individually, so it isn;t 
something you can talk about.
