1. Thank you for the links!

It cracks me up that so many don't consider the dangers of taking translated items literally.

Wonder what else may have been mucked up. Surely, the temptation to tweak a bit to promote one's own agenda might be too great to resist when one is footing the bill to publish the book for any particular local language.

17. But since 6/6/6 is really all about the superstition, probably fitting tha

it was mistranslated. I still expect an outbreak of random assorted nuttiness tomorrow though, just on general principles.

20. The real scoop on the sign of the beast

Given: BARNEY'S A CUTE PURPLE DINOSAUR
Prove: Barney is the anti-Christ

The Roman Empire killed Jesus so that must mean they were in league with the beast. Substituting Roman letters into the given statement, we get:

BARNEY'S A CVTE PVRPLE DINOSAVR

Extracting from that statement all the Roman numerals we get:


C = 100
V = 5
V = 5
L = 50
D = 500
I = 1
V = 5

Adding those number up, give us 666. QED. Barney is the anti-Christ
