Squeak 17 #5 May 17, 2005 QuoteGot a source or you joking ?http://www.religionnewsblog.com/11134 but there are many other sources as well I've heard it said that 666 was actually the number for the Sun in ancient Egyptian glyphs, and that Christians adopted it to Satan, so as to help convert Sun whorshipers to Christ. Seems reasonable given that Christianity adopted many Pagan ritesYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?

SpeedRacer 1 #9 May 17, 2005 My annotated Bible says that the numbers 666 refer to numbers associated with Hebrew or Greek characters. The Book of Revelation was written by John who was exiled to the island of Patmos. It was written during the 80s or 90s (don't have the Bible with me right now) at a time when Caesar Nero was really sticking it to the Christians. The characters used to spell Caesar Nero also spell the number 666, or 616 depending on the dialect used. The "city on seven hills" refers to Rome, where Ceasar Nero ruled. Certain anti-Catholic groups have uses the quote to "prove" that the pope is the anti-christ, ignoring the fact that there was no pope in Rome at the time of Nero.
