Oh, hehe, then I guess that I and maybe others have been caught hands deep down in the mythical cookie jar with not being mathematicians ![[Eek!]](images/icons/shocked.gif) /Thomas

God wouldn't allow His Word to contain such a glaring error for 99% of the Christian age.
( -- assuming that we even have 1% of the time left to go before the Lord returns...)

John's so right: God is not so foolish or weak or cryptic to let such a major "typo" survive so long.
It's just another example of papal mentality: "Oh look! Here's a great mystery hidden for ages. Let's ask some religious authority tell us what it means!"

Phil, you're last comment is what I had in mind with the Pi comment. It's silly to think 666 is really 616. It's as like that it's really Pi.
I misunderstood your post where I thought *you* were offering to explain my comment.

Oh, I got ya, Tom. I was waiting to see how all this Pi stuff could be tied in to Windmill's topic about Pi.
I'm just about to finish a great Adventist classic, "The Fathers of the Catholic Church", written by Dr Waggoner in 1888, and find that this "great discovery of ancient/lost/miracle documents is an old papal game. I am surprised that more of it hasn't been pulled in this tabloid happy, sensationist's world.
But I suspect we will see more of it soon enough.
Adventists had best take the runners off of their rocking chairs and sit on all four solid legs of the Advent hope. Don't depend on the arm of flesh, whatever his degree may say.

Yes, and another one is current events. Every time there's a new pope, the end is near.
Lot's of non-issues to distract the mind. But what's the truth about God? There's a real topic for discussion!

Right Tom. The question is: Do we think that if we know the "number of the beast" that that will enable us not to receive his mark? Is that our safety? Or is our safety in having our Father's name written in our foreheads? What does that mean? How about this "number": "Our heavenly father's name". ![[Smile]](images/icons/smile.gif)
