Six, Six, Six, tic, tic, Tic... but there is no beast in sight.

Six Hundred and Sixty-Six...

Revelation 13:18 in context “Here is a call for wisdom: Let the one who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and that number is six hundred sixty-six.”

By repeating the digit “6” threefold,

chxs: Six hundred sixty-six Original Word: χξς (χξϛ) Part of Speech: Noun Transliteration: chxs Pronunciation: khee-xee-stigma Phonetic Spelling: (khee xee stig'-ma) KJV: six hundred threescore and six Word Origin: [Greek alphabet used as numbers]

While there are numerous interpretations of this "magical" number, there is nothing magic in it, the text was clearly written in ancient Greek, Coinee language, spelling and culture. So to start with; any Hebrew language, Aramic language, Latin language; attempt to explain it is doomed to fail, it was writen in Greek for the Greek speakers of Greek culture.

Attempts to "identify" the exact person this numebr indicates have being made over the millenia in vain, any interpretation was a stretch of immagination ment to, mainly, make more money out of the church followers, and nothing more.

The most simple explanation is probably the best one; states Occam's razor Principle. It is also known as the principle of parsimony or the law of parsimony.

So let's start with what we have. The number Six, first appears in the Scripture as important when... God created the Humans, first Adam, than Eve as a derivation of Adam. In the Sixt'h day.

Also let's look in the Ancient Greek culture, that just like modern (any) culture, when spoken amongst people, they absolutely ignore grammar rules and any academic approved syntax, and go for their own. Than all facebbok goes in flames over their wrong spellings, the Gramar Nazi activates themselves to full steam. Because making a fuss over some grammar and syntax might make the other readers ignore the content, and the content... boy the content hurts the interests of those in high power places that pay the Grammar Nazi army.

But the Ancient Greece had no Facebook, hence many of those now are considered "Artistic interepretations" of the language, and it is known in art anything goes. A banana stuck with ducted tape on a wall is art if them powers to be decide so.

And the Ancient Greek speakers apparently took advantage big time off their artistic license in their daily writings, especially if said Ancient Greek was their second or third learned language, since they were born and raised in Israel and grew up in Hebrew, Aramaic, but later on wrote in Coinee. Not Latin, Coinee. Ancient Greek that is to be.

So what we have is that in an "artistic" license, the repetion of a word ment... plural. One Human was... "human", two or more than one single human was... "human, human". A plurality. But how did you said "artistically" that they were a large plurality, immense... well, you just said the word again, "human, human, human" an unprecised number of humans, but... huge.

So God made Humans in the sixt day, all Christians were good at what we deem now as "the old testament", Genesys included, especially the first chapter. How God created the Universe, Earth, the Sun, the humans; and the plants and the animals before Humans, and He thought it would be nice to have a Zootechnician and Horticulturalist team to tend to the Garden he made Earth to be, so there you have, He made Himself some Androids that could fix temselves when hurt of broken, multiply and replace themselves for when irremediably defective self discarded, communicate with the Creator, and among themselves, accumulate and transmit knowledge down the generations to come. Perfect Robots.

So when some Christian leader spoke to Christians and they wanted their message to remain an enigma to anybody else they made hints to specific Old Testament texts to pass intel without bing intercepted no matter whom else would stumble upon it.

It looks like John used this same old trick, 666, the sixth day; when humans were created, plurally, hinting to an immense plurality of... humans, not of calendar days.

If you replace in text the Beast number with... Humanity... all becomes clear, the human society is becoming The Beast, we harm ourselves, our own environment, the world that keeps us alive, until we succumb to our own stupidity raised at the power of science.

It is "us" our worst enemy, the very danger that will erase us and throw us back into stone age, well, the few of us that will survive oursleves poisoning the planet, bombing it, nuke it, set it on fire; for money.

Have a nice day, you are welcome.
