Adolf Hitler christened him "the man with the iron heart"

I'm no Biblical scholar, but wasn't 666 and a lot of that apocalypse stuff somehow related to the Emperor Nero?

[Jack T. Cross]

For the sake of this discussion, I will tell you that some body exists that would intend to suggest 616 is the mark.

The only connection is that John, the author of revelations lived during Nero's reign.

Possibly, but not a significant, recognizable or credible one.

Not true whatsoever, I am a historian and I have studied every major Manuscript from the Bible, the Apocrypha, The book of Jubilees, The book of Jasher, the Book of Enoch etc etc, you name it and I have read it, never heard of this, furthermore the dead sea scrolls date back older then the third century and manuscripts in the dead sea scrolls clearly state 6 3score and 6, a score is a group of 20, hence 666.

I got 366.

Yes, Thank you.

You got 72 there bro.  For 666 wouldn't they have said 30 score, 3 score, and 6?

Just out of interest, what numeric notation was used by the dudes who wrote the scrolls?

Yes your right, man you are confusing me, now I am making mistakes lol. OK 600 + 60 +6= 666  


And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred threescore and six." (Revelation 13:16-18 KJV)

It's hard to pin that 'ol devil down.

The Bible is where this term comes from, "the mark of the beast" and the Bible makes it perfectly clear that it is not a symbolic mark. Without it you won't be able to buy, sell, trade, use anything to do with a standard society. Most Christians believe this to be an RFID Chip that will act like ID, credit, and information, your whole life inside of one chip.
