What criteria?

I installed WP without a hitch, but when it came to the templates, I had a few problems.. I got most of them figured out by myself, but this one seems to make no sense. My template:
<?php
/* Don't remove this line. */
require('./wp/wp-blog-header.php');
?>
<?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) : start_wp(); ?>
<?php the_date('','<font>','</font>'); ?>
"><?php the_title(); ?> - <?php the_time('mdy', display) ?></h3>
<?php _e("Category:"); ?> <?php the_category() ?> <?php edit_post_link(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
-<?php the_author() ?> @ <?php the_time('g.ia', display) ?> <?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link(__('Fade?'), __('Fad1d'), __('Fad(%)d')); ?>
<!--
<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
-->
<?php include(ABSPATH . 'wp-comments.php'); ?>
<?php endforeach; else: ?>
<?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
but when you go to https://thefad3d.net/index.php, it says no posts match my criteria.. why?
