I was intrigued by this essay about the number 666 and goddess figures in religion. Do you think a change to this kind of a world-view would be good or bad? Why?

Answer 1

If every man would adore the goddesses rather than the violent gods advovating genocide and conquests by their slaves, puppets - this world would indeed be changed for the better.

What about the number 666..... One has to go to the Jewish letter/numbering system there. Maybe baba Bush or?. download the Jewish alphabet and the the corresponding numbers each letter has. Then type in all the names of those who count on the world stage,,,,,, let the computer then tally them all up individually. There must be some 666s there :)

Answer 2

OK, so, everyone should get all worked up over what a bunch of numbers represent in the views of various and assorted people throughout written or verbal history and then we should try and interpret what they really meant because even they knew it made no sense but they wrote it down anyways??? Oh, I forgot, because they wrote it it becomes a world view? No longer just the view of the few who were around when it was written? LOL it's a bunch of numbers. Who cares? They can mean anything any group of people wants them to mean and it can change on a daily basis if they so desire. It's a curvy line and a couple straight lines. Words and numbers mean nothing without all the nonsensical emotion some people try and pour into them. If you don't like today's interpretation, wait for tomorrows, lol.

Oh yeah, the world view ... so ready to take offense .... of course the view is bad. How about this one instead ... Men and Women were created different, yet equal in value, complimentary each to the other in physical, emotional and mental capacities. One meant to be strong when the other is weak , smart when the other is dumb, brave when the other is frightened, loving when the other calls for hate, creating and nourishing and nurturing and so on and so forth ... it's called pooling your resources and it works amazingly well !!! It might just be me, but I think there was a real good reason that man requires woman for offspring and vice-versa ... nature forces men and women to work together to prevent extinction of our species!! Good job God !!!

Answer 3

As far as I know, John, the author of The Book of Revelations, used the 666 as a secrete code to refer to Nero, the emperor of Rome, who banished John from practicing Christianity. Its was no secrete that John bared ill feelings of Nero, and blamed him for the horrid oppression of John and his people. I believe John wrote in Hebrew and they often used a numerical code for letters. Nero's name translates to the numerical number 666. And for his reign of terror, John refers to Nero as a beast, thus 666 is the mark of the beast.

Also John used the term "whore" to refer to the city of Rome, not a literal permiscuos woman.
