No. Not at all. :?

Some people will believe anything that's presented to them, won't they?

I first heard this in the 90s.

Guess who contacted me a day later by facebook?

Actually 666 most likely stands for Nero in Hebrew numerology, and the whole Book of Revelation is most likely about that time in Roman history and has precisely zero to do with anything happening today.

But why let Biblical scholarship get in the way of your exegesis?

I've heard of this also. I just don't get how easily these people fall for BS, but when presented with the facts, they just bury their heads up their arses. :?

Fun fact! (Or not):

I use SOTDRT in our homeschool. I give fundie posts to VooDooTeen to edit into proper English. :lol: I might have to cut back because the dumb just drives her mad, and I think too much exposure might actually be considered child abuse.

Maybe that's why Taryn disappeared from the internetz.

So she's using the Internet to tell everyone the Internet is evil and they should stop using it? SOTDRT fail. :doh:

Nah. She seems very reasonable. She also uses spectacular grammar.

The phrase "making a pact with the devil" springs to mind.

Between this place, Facebook and my email, I apparently sold my soul to the devil years ago. Oh well, it's warm and fiery in hell right? I may as well just stock up on marshmallows, graham crackers and Hershey bars and make S'Mores for all eternity... :twisted:

The WWW is 666 thing has been around forever; I remember hearing about it in high school, when the Internet was in it's infancy. There was also another one that had to do with http, but I can't remember what that was.

Reason, logic and factual evidence? Oh noes!

[As a side note - my personal FB feed is full of stuff like this. That's actually a big reason I joined FJ - to talk to others who see how ridiculous it is!]
