Wouldn’t it be neat if when you purchase something, or your change comes out to $6.66, the receipt printed in RED!!
 
Bag of Cheetos $2.50.

Can of Coke $1

Pack of gum $1.49

Pepperoni stick $2

Getting extra change from the bible belt because your total is $6.66… Priceless
If you want to test their sense of history, mention your name is “Kaiser Neron”.

No, this is coming down to superstition. 666 has a symbolic meaning, not a computational one. It’s mean to signify a name, not a number of units (in this case, pennies).

LOL exactly. 😃 Very good.
 
I always found the fear of the number “666” to be amusing, being that it is (as previously hinted at) the numerical value of the letters in Emperor Nero’s full name.

Outside of that context, the number 666 is just that: a number.
 
When you do it, make sure you take 6 of your buddies. That way there would be 7, like the 7 seals in Revelation.

Just make sure you all know CPR.
LOL absolutely…and if that ticket DOESN’T print out in red, I will be very disappointed!
 
I get phone calls from older people all day. We send them letters with reservation numbers on them, offering an information kit. A gentleman one day read his number to me, and hesitated at one point, finally saying “666”. He asked if he could have a different reservation number. I tried to explain that he doesn’t need one anymore because it was just to find his address in my database, but he was pretty set on it. I made one up for him, changing a couple of the sixes, and he was happy again. It’s pretty amazing how someone can be afraid of a number.
 
“President Obama is the Beast with Seven Heads! Nancy Pelosi is the servant of the great dragon! The 1,000 year reign of the Beast was ushered in by Dick Cheney! The new health reform bill is the sign of the beast as it will cost 666 trillion dollars by 2014 to pay off, the 14 in 2014 symbolizing the twelve apostles plus two more! Ahmadinejad in Iran is building nukes which will never be finished because Israel will bomb his centrifuges before he can finalize enriched uranium. Israel will fly in F-16’s which represent the four horsemen of the apocolypse. All sorts of strange phenomena will take place after the horsemen arrive. Elton John will start judging ladies’ bikini contests and marry Jessica Simpson. Conan O’Brien will take back the Tonight Show, Toyota’s brakes will work, The Episcopal Church will exume the body of David Carradine from Kung Fu and install him as Presiding Bishop, Fox News will merge with MSNBC, and Boy George will be en vogue again. God help us all! Some people think that I, Jack Van Impe, am stretching the truth or drawing weak conclusions. Am I really? Seriously? Am I really? Folks, these are the visions of the end times! Now, please send your generous donation to
Jack Van Impe
666 Poughkipsie NY 0144

Please enclose as much as you can to offset the migraines I get from these visions the Lord sends me. I go through a load of Tylenol, around $30 million dollars worth per year. God bless you all!”

That’s true. If Jackie Vee or John Hagee find out, I might show up as the “beast” on a Van Impe broadcast (although I’d have to join the EU first) or on one of those enormous displays that serves as Hagee’s backdrop when he “preaches.”

I’ve talked with some very intelligent dispensationalists, but JVI doesn’t come across in the same way. He’s too formulaic:

A. “Here’s a news event …”
B. “This ties to the prophecy of …”
C. “That means Jesus is coming soon.”

Granted, he takes his approach straight from Hal Lindsay, who also is not immune to jumping to contrivances. I think Lindsay’s theology is more driven by anti-communist sentiment than by actual history, for example tying Gog and Magog to Russia somehow.

It also doesn’t help that his wife smiles whether she reads about an earthquake, or a tsunami, or a war. Same with Joel Osteen. I don’t trust people who smile that much.
 
"President Obama is the Beast with Seven Heads!
Where does he hide them?
Nancy Pelosi is the servant of the great dragon!
There’s merit there.
The 1,000 year reign of the Beast was ushered in by Dick Cheney!
aka, Darth Vader.
14 in 2014 symbolizing the twelve apostles plus two more!
The other two must be Abe Vagoda and the red-shirted ensign from Star Trek.
Israel will fly in F-16’s which represent the four horsemen of the apocolypse.
What about the four bikers of the apocalypse? See the apocrpyhal work, “Good Omens”
The Episcopal Church will exume the body of David Carradine from Kung Fu and install him as Presiding Bishop,
GRASSHOPPER!
 
Don’t watch if you’re offended by extremist preachers (which frankly, I am too), but if you’d like a good laugh…the “Mark” of the Beast is in the NIV Bible. The NIV Gospel of Mark has 666 verses. This dude is an absolute loon, but I’ll give him credit for taking the time to add up verses in a Bible translation. How else could we have known that the Beast himself gave us the NIV? 😃

“I’m a doctor, not a brick-layer!”
–McCoy reacting to having to render first aid to the Horta 😛

But if I remember correctly… Bones says…

"damnit Jim… I’m a doctor, not a brick layer… 😉
 
Oh I don’t knoooow, jak! LOL…I don’t remember the damnit part? LOL…

How about “Friday’s Child,”----“I’m a doctor, not an escalator!”

😃 no worries my dear friend…!! 😉

I never saw the “friday’s child” movie so I cannot comment…

But back to Star Trek with this Horta species… it was a vegetation, sprout like creature and the funny thing about is that the word “horta” means “greens” or some sort of “greens veggie” in Greek.

Gotta love Gene! 👍
