    Well, after 5 months here this is my 666th post. I’m not sure what the significance is, but it seemed a noteworthy milestone to me anyway!

    6.66: the GPA of the beast.

    668: the guy who lives next door to the beast.

    666-6666: the phone number of the beast.

    Because there is an infinite number of numbers, each has an infinitely small amount of significance. That is, to say, none.
    :rolleyes:

    On the other hand, The Omen II was, IMHO, far superior to the first. Satan goes to military school. It just doesn't get any better than that. :p

    In Gert's first posting, I just now noticed that you can click on his "old fashioned writing." Guess I'll have to check it out and see what it says....

    Ok, I skimmed through the writings a little bit and here is my opinion on what the "Mark of the Beast" is:

    The Bible says that the mark is:
    • In our right hand (symbolic of our daily actions)
    • In our forehead (symbolic of our thoughts, beliefs and alliances).
    Conclusion: Our thoughts, beliefs and alliances, coupled with our daily actions, will determine if we have the mark of the beast.

    666. Thats actually impressive, as long as what you say is worth reading. I guess I should add here that I think Gert's things are usually pretty good, imho.

    Here I am hoping to get enough posts so that I won't be listed as a new member anymore...

    Thanks for the opportunity to get one more post in as I move toward my goal.

    I thought Jesus spoke in Aramaic? Well, Latin is easier to post, I suppose...

    Only at a degree mill could one obtain this kind of GPA, John. Doesn't the numerical/alphabetical value of 6.66 equal Trinity C & U ? :cool:

    Beelzebub, AK???????

    So he moved to Alaska???? Does this address the old phrase, "when hell freezes over"?

    Any suggestions?

    OK, now how do we tie that in with the whole 666 theme?
    I know we don't want to lose the original thought...
