666... What is it? The number of Satan? A cool-sounding number that annoys christians? No.... it's much more than that! It's an extraordinarily special number....

Example Two:
666 is the sum of the squares of the first seven primes. (2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19)

Example Three:
The Roman numeral representation of the number 666 (DCLXVI) uses one each of the Roman numeral symbols with values under 1,000, and that they are in exact reverse order of their respective values (D = 500, C = 100, L = 50, X = 10, V = 5, I = 1). The Roman Empire was the most prominent empire in the world at the time, and this number became symbolically attached to "the Devil". Weird, huh?

Example Four:
In the numeric letter-coding system of A= 100, B=101, C= 102, and so on, the name "Hitler" adds up to 666. This only applies to certain languages.

Example Five:
Former U.S. president Ronald Wilson Reagan had six letters in his first, middle, and last name. He also lived, in California, in house number 666 on his block, until wife, Nancy Reagan, had it changed to 668.

People base religion off paranoia.

2 and 3 are considered imperfect, and so are non-prime numbers, 2x3=6. Prime numbers above 3 are considered holy, so 5 is considered neutral, and 7, being the lowest positive prime number with no relation to 2 or 3, became the holy number. This led to 13 (6+7) being unlucky, since evil and good were supposed to be separate, and 42 (6x7) was said to be the meaning of life, the universe and everything in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe , since good and evil coinciding came to be thought of as a purpose of life around the time the book was written.

I still think that 666 is a number, and nothing more. I don't know what you are trying to say here, but obviously nobody cares.
