    Like everything in religion, symbolism is often used to convey a point.

    The Anti Christ is representative of a cycle. The bottom end of which is a time of little virtue and much vice.

    There is nothing in nature that does not travel a path. Each enjoys a birth, a time of duration, and finally a death. Such cycles for the Anti Christ run several generations between outbreaks. When is it paced with religious belief, it can be timed.

    Once those who knew the pain of this kind of system have died off, their warnings silent, the trigger is set once again. Each century has the scars of such people in power.

    This century is off to the usual start.

    Most scholars who have objectively studied the subject generally agree that 666 is a reference to Nero Caesar, using a Jewish System of converting letters to numbers called Gematria

    The bible doesn't seem quite as mystical when you find out it's just men talking about other men.

    im starting to think its obama because i noticed how hyped blacks were in america and KENYA! also obama was in germany giving speechs, then he wants to make friends with chavez. also the bible says " they will worship the image of the beast... have you guys notice how much merchandise there is with obamas face on it! hand bands, posters (not election ones), american flags with his face on! y? stickers of his face and not with biden. also i notice his backing Israel. And also the speaker at his inauguration was a evangelist which the gays hate but then obama supports gays?

    Some believe that 666 is the mark of the Biblical antichrist. Others say that it signifies some form of compulsory identification, such as a tattoo or an implanted microchip with a digital code that identifies the person as a servant of the beast. Still others hold that 666 is the mark of the Catholic papacy. Substituting Roman numerals for the letters in a form of the pope’s official title, Vicarius Filii Dei (Vicar of the Son of God), and manipulating the figures a little, they come up with 666. It is also claimed that the same number can be calculated from the Latin name of Roman Emperor Diocletian and from the Hebrew version of the name Nero Caesar.

    666 is mark of the Wild Beast, so what is the Wild Beast?
    The Wild Beast represents the combined forces of all political rule opposed to God in the world.

    666 is a man’s number or a human number, how so?
    The beast’s having “a human number,” therefore, indicates that governments reflect the fallen human condition, the mark of sin and imperfection.

    Why 666?
    The number seven, for example, is often used to symbolize that which is complete, or perfect, in God’s eyes. Six is one short of seven and would be a fitting symbol of something imperfect, or defective, in God’s eyes. Moreover, six repeated three times, as 666, powerfully stresses that imperfection.

    What is the mark of the Beast and how can you have it on the right hand or on the forehead?
    The mark, whether on the right hand or on the forehead, figuratively speaking, is a symbol that identifies its bearer as one who gives worshipful support to the beastlike political systems of the world. Those having the mark give to “Caesar” that which rightly belongs to God. How? By giving worshipful honor to the political state, its symbols, and its military might, to which they look for hope and salvation. Any worship that they render the true God is merely lip service.

    666 is not a Who, but a What. 666 is the Mark OF the Beast and not the beast itself. Perhaps it serves as an Identifier?
