You don't have to be a particular religion to answer this post or any religion at all, you can be athiest or anything. I'm idealistic and want to believe in the Aquarian world peace, but this is reality. So, I just want to get some firm opinions and beliefs about such an apparent topic (especially on the american History Television Channel) not just media wise but informally and personally so many people struggle with images of who the bringer of ultimate destruction/armageddon truly is.

It is ourSelves...

666..the beast is man..we must overcome our dark sides..does it represent a certain Satan type person..yes it must..for what has been..is..and will be..is based on these actual figures who first came to be in human form. ...

for truly we are responsible for the destruction on this Earth..and No One else...

Exactly. But you can't get a politician to say something like that.

hmm
all that prophetic stuff... load of shizit
it's just a fancy way of saying, the human race, although it likes to think it, isnot excluded from the evolutionary laws

therefore armagedon is a scientific guarentee that the human race will get to a point in it's existence when it has to either change it's ways or cease to exist

continuing to live the way we do serves nothing, we seem to forget that even if our species becomes extinct life will still go on

if you ask me, people are in merely receiving a larmic retribution for not awakening

I am in total agreement with Lotus and 13anshee on who the anti-Christ is.

Islamists seem to think the Quran's number is 666, but it's not really evil, that is just a lie by the devil to fool infidels and non-believers. (non-Islamists)

Lioneye,

I looked at the links & I`d venture to say the author is using a "one size fits all" Muslims in their interpretation of 666 & the Quran.

Much the same as authors validating the Bible Code as fact for all Christians.

It`s a subjective interpretatiion (especially saying Satan invented the Hadiths).

I don`t believe this is a general belief among Muslims and would be interested to hear some insights from them.

Opinion only here; no factoids to share

True, Juni - In fact, it could be said that all religious interpretation is mearly conjecture and indiviual opinions.

Sometimes the thought enters my head that Chris Angel is the antichrist. He does things that are unexplainable, like levitating from one roof-top to another, walking on water, vanishing into thin air, hypnotizing an entire room all at once...etc. Just crazy stuff! The guy gives me the creeps.

Maybe the CIA should try to recruit him.

LMAO, Good one, lioneyes. Maybe they already have recruited him.

Don't have time right now to read all the info that you guys posted here but will get to it later.

It's my understanding, I could be wrong, that the numbers 666 were assigned as the number of the beast because the number which represents perfection is 7.

Yes, I read that too.

777 is the perfect Holy Trinity - Father, Son & Holy Spirit. Or, to be less patriarchal about it, God, God's Messenger, and God's spirit within each of us. The essence of Life.

666 falls short on all points, hence, the trinity of imperfection, the detriment of Life.

PS: Not suggesting that the CIA and the antichrist would make good bedfellows, as that would be disasterous. Just saying that it would be smart to harness Chris Angel's powers to help fight evil. Some would say the CIA itself is evil. I'm not speculating on that one way or another, because... really, what the heck do *I* know about that? I'm just talking junk here.
