Legend of the 'demon's day' 6/6

In Western countries with a majority of Catholics, the number of 666 is considered the number of demons. This year, June 6, 2006, with the mysterious number 666, what happens? Of course it is a bad thing because anything related to demons is good. But not everyone is like that.

June 6, 2006 is the only day in the 21st century that has a mysterious number of 666. Nowadays, people are afraid of this number because in the last volume of the New Testament, often called the book of Revelation, the number of 666 is said to be a frightening mark of Satan. This impressive 666 figure is not really a 'specialty' of Catholics. Many other religions and cultures also consider this number to be unlucky, only to bring disaster.

Avoid giving birth

The most worrying is the pregnant women who are about to give birth this month. On the magazine of Mother and Child magazine, published in London, the women discussed their stories so they should not give birth on that damn day. Francesca Renouf said she was so frightened that she forced a doctor to assure her that there would be no birth on June 6, 2006. Another pregnant woman, Melissa Parker, confided in The Sun: 'Every day, I wake up with a premonition about something bad. Thinking about the difficult life or the birth of a child with the seed of evil in June 6, 2006, I was frightened. Worse, the baby may be the flesh and blood devil. '

But there are many other women who don't matter as much as Ms. Parker. They even plan to name their children in horror movies. For example, Emma Parker said she would name her son Damien, the son of the embodiment of the devil in the famous movie The Omen. Another lady named Donna Magnante, chose Regan, a character from The Exorcist.

Misunderstanding the Bible

The book of Revelation has many passages that lacks understanding that can understand many ways. The number 666 is in such a paragraph, specifically in chapter 13, that caused controversy among scholars. Some scholars think people have misunderstood. The number of demons is exactly 616, not 666. However, people are still inclined to the number 666 because of its mysterious looks.

Phillips Stevens Jr., professor of anthropology at the University of Science and Arts, commented: 'Revelation is a complicated and messy book. Scholars have found many 'demons' in chapters 13 and many other chapters. They all talk about Rome, Roman emperors, Roman worship styles and worship of the emperor. '

According to Professor Stevens, like all superstitions, the so-called demonic numbers are based on false data. The word "devil" in Revelation is not only Satan but many different entities.

The author of Revelation is John in Patmos, which is often called St. John the Apostle. He wrote this book with a lot of cryptography. Professor Stevens said that the number 666, the mark of demons, means those who are dedicated to serving the Roman emperor, also synonymous with anti-God. It is also the number equivalent to the number of Nero Caesar (the last Roman emperor of the notorious evil Julio- Claude dynasty) in Hebrew.
