My theory is this (bear with me, and resist the temptation to roll your eyes):

7 represents perfection.
3 represents whole, fullness (trinity).
10 represents 7 + 3 (perfection + fullness) = completion.
Completion x 3 (again, fullness) = 1,000 ~ represents us, here on earth.
12 represents the world (time & humanity) (12 months/12 hrs… 12 desciples)
12 x 12 x 1,000 = 144,000 (where did we see that number before?)

Makes sense to me, as crazy as it sounds… 🙂

So, along that same line, 666 means none other than “near perfection”. Looks like God, walks like God, and talks like God, but is NOT God. Close, but no cigars… But still, it’s better than 555, don’t you think? You’re definitely not a zero, that’s for sure… 😉

And here I always thought the beast was a brand of beer from Wisconsin…

too bad 616 appears to be more likely the mark of the beast. wait all those monks making hand copies of the bible for a millenium and a half wouldn’t have made and MISTAKES would they?

Geeze. He needs to check his feeds more often. Maybe then he won’t summon the beast ;]

Watch out, Hemant, FOX News is going to be all over this in a heartbeat.

Hmmm… it looks like the name FriendlyAntiChrist.com is still available (as they suggested). I’d grab it while you can. 😛

As I clicked on this in my feed reader NetNewsWire, and read it, I looked down at the Dock on my Mac, and behold. Look how many unread items I had.
