Quick, post like billy o

The actual number of the beast is 611 - it was a misspelling in one of the copies of the bible that changed it. I found this out on Qi so it must be right.

[/pedantry]


If Stephen Fry says it is 611, then it must be true. I love Stephen Fry. Big Grin

No its not a mispelling its how hebrew numbers are interpreted. Also involves roman Caesars and how they were referred to by numbers as well.

Too long a subject for tonight though Big Grin And nobody knows for sure what it is.

Argh! I'm incorrect - it's 616

Revelation! 666 Is Not the Number of the Beast (It's a Devilish 616)

The Independent

A newly discovered fragment of the oldest surviving copy of the New Testament indicates that, as far as the Antichrist goes, theologians, scholars, heavy metal groups, and television evangelists have got the wrong number. Instead of 666, it's actually the far less ominous 616.

The new fragment from the Book of Revelation, written in ancient Greek and dating from the late third century, is part of a hoard of previously unintelligible manuscripts discovered in historic dumps outside Oxyrhynchus in Egypt. Now a team of expert classicists, using new photographic techniques, are finally deciphering the original writing.

You're right. I've just googled it because I wasn't entirely sure I had my facts straight and you're spot on. I should just keep my trap shut! Hug

Its not as black and white as that

Have a look at the roman emperors bit if it changed for a name and that name is different in different languages (see Nero) then 616 and 666 can both be correct.

Marcus will have had his card marked tonight by BB. They won't like it the way he has shown them up. They will be keeping a close eye on him now. I can't imagine that they would like him to win and show them up.

What they should do is really analyse what he said, and take it to heart, because he was so right!

He's gone up in my estimation tonight. A long way!

Wouldn't mind it being Freddie, Siavash and Marcus in the final. Thumbs Up

BB most certainly will be keeping a close eye on him. Tonight I admired his stance in sticking up for himself Clapping. It hasn't really endeared him to me though TBH>

Still think he's a bit of a plank but .............give me one Marcus's to ten Sree any day.

Really and truly can't stand Sree!
