THE 666 ISSUE

INTRODUCTION:  WHATEVER YOU MAY BELIEVE ABOUT RELIGION AND THE EXISTENCE OF 'THE DEVIL', YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE OTHERS, MANY PROMINENT HUMAN BEINGS WHO HAVE THEIR OWN ESOTERIC OPINION ON THE MEANING OF THE SO CALLED 'NUMBER OF THE BEAST'.

SO WHETHER IT WAS A NUMBER PICKED AT RANDOM AT SOME TIME, OR IT IS A LONG KNOWN MATHEMATICAL / GEOMETRIC EQUATION RELATED TO SOLAR SCIENCE, IT IS INCORRECT TO SAY THAT BECAUSE MERELY ONE OF ITS BIBLICAL TRANSLATIONS MAY BE WRONG, THIS MUST MEAN THAT ALL OTHER INTERPRETATIONS ARE NULL AND VOID AND THEREFORE ANY REPRESENTATION OF 666 IN ANY FORM IS INSIGNIFICANT.

IT IS ALSO ESSENTIAL TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHETHER OR NOT YOU BELIEVE THE DARK IMPLICATIONS OF HAVING A LUCIFERIAN 666 BEAST SYSTEM (SEE THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS, CHRISTIAN BIBLE) IN PLACE, UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE PROMINENT AND INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO MOST CERTAINLY DO AND ARE PUSHING SUCH A SYSTEM FORWARD.

HERE WE LOOK AT THE ATTITUDE OF THE PEOPLE WHO JUST DON'T 'GET IT' WHEN IT COMES TO THE DANGER INHERENT WITH THE WORSHIP OF 666.

Before cremationofcare.com was set up, I (the webmaser of this site) ran a smaller and less informative website for about eighteen months, which although it had a lot of material on Illuminati Symbolism, it served little more than to give myself the technical training needed to do what I am doing now.

Some of the material in our 'Illuminati Symbolism - 666' section was taken directly from this older site, so we feel that the following correspondence (received from an upset visitor) would help to put any doubts as to the integrity of the material into perspective...

One day I was getting a wash in the bathroom when I noticed something about my cotton buds standing on the worktop of my bathroom.As I looked more closely at the writing on the cotton buds, and remembered what you said on your website, I could suddenly see something I never noticed before.If you look at the Johnson cotton buds more carefully,totally ignore the top half of the "J" and intead look at the bottom half of the "J" and notice how the left hook of the "J" leans over to the right.If you look more carefully it looks like a "6".

Again, if you look at both "S's" in"Johnson's"and look at both left hooks and the way they both lean over to the right, both look suspiciously like 6's!

So in short,what you have is 666! A "6" in the "J" and a "6" in both "S's".

But thats not all.If you look again at both "S's", but this time look at the more prominent, more bolder right hooks in the "S's" leaning over to the left and look at the "J" more fully, you will notice it is a "6" too, but facing the left!

So what you have is one group of "6's" leaning in one direction (towards left) and another leaning towards the right.Now, I dont know whether If I have something genuine or I'm just being totally paranoid, i.e. looking for things which aren't there but I thought I should let you know what I've found.

The reason I was interested in this set of cotton buds in the first place is that, by a funny coincidence, my surname is "Johnson" too(as you would have noticed) and I thought you ought to know about what I have discovered.

Following this obviously deceptive e-mail, a quick response was sent back explaining that we do not waste our time with fools who send sardonic e-mails.  To which the following negative follow-up response was given...

"You totally slammed the email I sent to you as complete rubbish. Fair enough. Even I thought the idea of 666 mysteriously hidden in Johnson's cotton buds to be complete nonsense.But what I cannot understand is, how YOU expect ME (or other people for that matter) to believe that famous company logo's secretly conceal the number of the beast. I've seen your examples on the website but I'm not convinced.I will admit that this website is quite entertaining, not to mention offbeat but you dont really expect anyone to believe this particular theory you're putting forward.C'mon now,lets be serious here.We live in a world of logic and reasoning not devils, ghosts and goblins.You're looking for things which aren't there.Do you really expect any sane person to actually believe this idea you're spouting out?"

COMMENTARY:  It is not our intention nor expectation to make our visitors 'believe that famous company logo's secretly conceal the number of the beast'.  The mainstream research material is already there if anyone wants to check it out, that confirms that '666' is an esoteric number adopted by many secret societies and cults, who 'get off' on flashing such symbols into the faces of the profane majority.

Note also that the 'paranormal' angle of the person making the comments goes straight to the literal notion of 'Devils, Ghosts and Goblins'.  We the research team do not promote such beliefs, at least not literally as certain Fokelore and readers of the Fortean Times might maintain.  It is ironic that even though we do not make the links to the 'Paranormal', the person in question does so very quickly.

The fact that we constantly refer to such symbols as 666 as being 'esoteric' disclaims any accusation that we are saying that '666 is the number of 'the Devil, who is a red skinned guy that actually exists!'.

Some of our examples of logos which possibly visually integrate 666 on purpose (such as Coca-Cola and Disney) may be 'off the mark' (pardon the pun), but I believe that this material is balanced with enough provable documented fact to keep it worth while.  The reader can make their own mind up.

Other arguments that I have personally been confronted with are the ones that claim that '666' is a false translation and that the 'number of the beast' is actually '616'.  Okay then, by that principal, ask yourself if it is justified when a parent turns away a potential babysitter because the babysitter has 666 tattooed all over his forehead.  I mean if the number is really 616, then why worry?

Again, the debunkers go to the literal notion of 666 representing the existence of the Devil, who is a real person, probably red skinned with horns and a tail, whilst ignoring the meaning of the symbol... as a symbol which is worshipped by down to earth men who wear shirts and ties and tell us what to do and as a nation, who to go to war with.

SIDE-LESSONS TO BE LEARNED: -

We did try to put to rest some of the concerns made by this person, however we fell prey to a several month-long campaign of harassment which led to the sender having two e-mail accounts being closed by Hotmail for abuse.

What we have posted above was just the correspondence that kick-started this.  Almost weekly we received offensive and sometimes threatening e-mails from this guy, before he gave up.  The lesson to be learned from this is to not waste time with those who are only looking for a fight.

As a friend of mine said regarding this episode "There is nothing to gain in winning an argument with an idiot, they just drag you down to their level and win on experience".
