You will know them by their ‘fruits’

In, that verse (Matt 7) Christ is talking about false prophets, not behavior of believers. However, I definitely would classify zero as a false prophet and therefore the verse you referenced would be correct.

Yes, and that passage does give us reason to examine the tree...

Luke 6:43-45 (NIV):

43"No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. 44Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. 45The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

And it seems from various reports, that there are a lot of fruits in 0bamacommie's past but that has been the subject of other threads. (Sorry, couldn't resist...)
