Hmm...I failed at getting my point across. I meant the opposite. "Everything fears nothing!", said everything. It was a joke more than an answer.

Okay, it's time that I reveal the answer. And basically this is how it goes:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, ... ∞
Therefore: Zero won to ALL the numbers to infinity.
Rev. Rye was the closest in getting the answer (in his second post). To everyone else: Nice try.

I traveled back in time recently and changed the pronunciation of 7, 8 and 9 to "I", "sodomized" and "your mother" respectively.

Still reckon mine was more creative.
If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.

Because if you divide by zero...
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Said:
"And you know that 'existence of God' thing that I had trouble understanding before? I think I'm starting to understand it now. Maybe, just maybe, it's a concept that's similar to a zero in mathematics. In other words, it's a symbol that denies the abscence of meaning, the meaning that's necessitated by the delineation of one system from another. In analog, that's God. In digital, it's zero. ...So, for the time being, no matter how much data we accumulate, we'll never have a Ghost. But analog-based people like you, Batou-san, no matter how many digital components you add through cyberization or prosthetics, your Ghost will never be damaged. Plus, you can even die, cause you've got a Ghost. You're so lucky. Tell me how it feels to have a Ghost."
