I'm bored so now I'm gonna bore u ppl; a few years ago I thought that this year would be the year of true anti-christ (occording to those who believe in this typa stuff).

This year will bring about the date 06/06/06 ('666' for the slow ones), mark/number of The Beast. Thoughts anyone? Anyone besides me think this notion is gonna become a big deal in the religious world? I certainly hope it doesn't there's enough crap cluttering the media already. (Not that I totally believe this notion to be crap....[those who believe in this typa stuff])

Thats right arround my birthday.

The guy who made the Gregorian calendar fucked up anyway. The calendar was supposed to start in the year Jesus was born, but the guy who made the calendar missed Jesus's birth by a few years.

No one really knows the exact year Jesus was born. But we do know that the calendar was innacurate.

Nice info , but that has nothing to do with the topic. the ANTI-Christ, not The Christ....

isn't 616 the supposed to be the number of the beast.

I trusted TOTSEans to be able to make the link themselves. Fuck that.

The point was that, the calendar isn't REALLY based on Jesus's birthday, so the significance of a number appearing in the calendar is questionable.

But whatever, I decided this forum had too many idiots in it a while back.

666 is not a date, it is the number of the name (of the beast)...for example, in ASCII, the number of the character string "CELLPHONE" equals 666. Hebrew and Greek denoted numbers using their alphabet.. there was not numerals in those languages (to my knowledge).

There are other Eschatological interpretations of the meaning of "six hundred and sixty six", but to my understanding, none of them even speculate that it means a date. But basically the differing thoughts on understanding what the "mark of the beast" is, is the degree of symbolism that is assumed. I, personally, think that it is more literal.. although i do see (from the Book of Daniel) that there may be much more symbolism than i read into it (atleast, at present).

Anyway.... WELCOME BACK, TOTSE!!!

I do know that on this date this seemingly kickass movie is going to be released. It's about that type of stuff

http://www.thebeastmovie.com/

All I have to say about this topic is

a) 6/6/06 is senior ditch day for my class

b) I wish I was the anti christ. And not for some stupid teenage goth/metalhead type reason. I don't actually know why, but it would be awesome.

the end.

I thought that 616 was the real number of the beast and 666 was just a translation error in the bible.

What about 6/6/0006 or 6/6/1006? Why 2006 and not before?

things such as common sense can't get in the way of apocalypse predictions.

Thats true, but they have agreed that he was most likely born in 4 BCE, but they can never be sure.

I saw a some show that at the time the whole 666 thing and what not was around the time the emperor or something (correct me if i'm wrong because it was around roman time) was making

666 a requirement to deal goods. So it could have been a metaphor or something.

Angelina Jolie's SON will be born PREMATURE but HEALTHY on 06/06/06 June sixth 2006 it will be the ANTICHRIST.

666 is the number of the beast (not satan the beast is a monster of satan sent to try to be anti-christ like) not 616. Because 7 is the number of god (the perfect number)so 6 is the imperfect number.Three of the number increases the potencey of it.

*Yawn* Totse sucks now

06/06/06 happens once every century. This is not like a once in a millennium phenomena. If there was to be a date of the anti-christ based on the number 666 wouldn't it be 06/06/6666 instead of 06/06/2006, unless you all forgot that 2006 is the REAL year and it's not just "06".

So what!!! Cheesus, I hate when ppl don't read what the haven they respond to. The question is not over whether or not an anti-christ will be born, or the frequency of the date, it is about, WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN IN THE RELIGIOUS WORLD BECAUSE OF THE COMING OF THIS DATE?

Do you think there'll be a bunch of 'hooplah' about it? What do you think will happen?

Do you believe that Xians will use this in some sort of propoganda, do you think ppl will flood the media with garbage about the date?

Same here!

666? There's three zero's in there, too, you know. It would be more like 060606... which is very much not "the mark of the beast" or any of the other terms for it.

Cheers,

Lost

My birthday = June 1st.

I have a question...if 3 6s increase the 'potency' of the number, why stop at 3? Why not 8? or even 20? Or just 9999999999?

What if the numbers were mistakenly written upside down.
