Discussion about Christianity by Christians and those who are curious.
Rule #1. Anti-Christian and anti-Bible statements will not be tolerated. Constructive criticism of Christianity is OK, however.
Rule #1.1. The measure for what is considered Christian, as has been the case in the faith since the earliest days, will be the faith proclaimed in the Nicene Creed.

I'm interested in where that information comes from. Who, what, or where are 1 and 6 said to be the same?
Hebrew number 6 is very similar if not the same as the Arabic 1
I point to viral outrage of the Monster logo in 20142014 lady
So can you explain the logic behind using what is essentially two different languages simultaneously to make these assumptions? 1 and 6 aren't logically the same number, you're just pointing to one languages symbol for a number is similar to a different languages symbol for a number. They aren't actually the same number.
Because reportedly the number has been changed from 616 to 666 anyway. Not sure how true that is but this has always been a thing. I’m not the person who connected Arabic 6 to Hebrew 1 you’d have to hunt down the original person to do this.
Half of this is being ironic but I also believe the joke to be true in certain ways.
