Re: 666?

ok i think what is trying to be said here is this:

Assume for a moment that 7 is the "perfect number." For whatever reason, if its prime or whatever. The closest tangible number (integer) to 7 is 6. Why not 8? Because if 7 is God's number (i.e. 7 days of creation), then 8 would be a number higher than God and therefore could not exist for the purposes of this discussion.

If we go by this whole superstitious Saying Things Three Times Makes Them Magic theory, 777 would be the Magic Perfect Number. Accordingly, 666 would be a 3x repetition of the number CLOSEST to being the most powerful/perfect (7). So, 666 really is a way of saying something that tries to be God, but can never be perfect and thereby fails. Maybe this translates to the devil or something?
