"Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and
poor, both free and
slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,
so that no one can buy or
sell who does not have the mark, that is, the name
of the beast or the number of
his name. This calls for wisdom: let anyone
with the understanding calculate the
number of the beast, for it is the
number of a person. Its number is six hundred
and sixty-six." - Book of
Revelations 13:16-18Is June 6, 2006 (6/6/06) connected to what is widely accepted as the biblicaly bad number? Let's take a look at the most prominent occurence of this number in the scripture posted above.
According to the verse, the number 666 will be a mark on the right hand or forehead - so that anyone who does not have the mark will be unable to buy or sell anything. Hhhm, nothing about a date there. Let's look into that verse a little further.
". . .the mark (is) the number of the beast or the number of his name." (emphasis mine) This scary number is some sort of numerical representation of a name according to a prophecy. 666 does not hold any signifgance over calandar dates, purchase totals at a cash register, or any other random occurance.
Today may be 6/6/06 but to me, it's just Tuesday.
