The number 666 comes straight of of The Book of Revelations of Jesus Christ (BRJC). Some just call the last book of the Bible 'Revelations', but that is in fact, incorrect. I will suggest that you cannot understand 666 until you understand the number 777. As any reader of the Bible will tell you, the number seven is a number that is close to God's heart. It certainly is of massive importance in the BRJC. In the first chapter, we are introduced to seven churches. In Rev 1:20 we read of seven churches having seven stars (which are seven angels) and seven lampstands which symbolize those churches. In other words,
7 Churches,
7 Stars/Angels and,
7 Lampstands,
or the number 777. Remember, the Church is an institution near and dear to God. In the BRJC 5:6, we see a picture of Jesus Christ as a slain Lamb. We find Him having three characteristics, namely:
7 Horns,
7 Eyes and,
7 Spirits of God,
which is the number 777 once more. Seven is God's number which is considered the 'divine' number. Six is the number of Man, not God. Man was created on the sixth day (Gen 1) and God 'rested' on the seventh which as any Jew will tell you is the Shabbat (Sabbath). If there is a finite number that God would choose to reveal His triune nature, 777 would be it. Satan is not, nor can he ever be, a seven. He is an imposter, a six (Man's number), which is one less than a seven. 777 represents Holy Trinity of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 666 is a number that therefore reveals the Unholy Trinity of Satan (the anti-Father), the Beast (anti-Christ) and the False Prophet (anti-HS). Notice the prefix 'anti-'. 'Anti' doesn't just mean 'against', it also means 'instead of'. The seven-year reign of AntiChrist (see Dan 9:27) is those mystery years that immediately precede the Glorious Appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Oh God save history
Oh God save your mad parade
Oh God have mercy all crimes are paid
When there's no future how can there be sin
We're the flowers in the dustbin
We're the poison in your human machine
We're the future - your future
God save the queen - we mean it man
There is no future in England's dreaming....

If I stand all alone, will the shadow hide the color of my heart

These kinds of people are the "why not try this?" kinds of guys.
"Why NOT try to ask the government for 700 billion dollars and see if they give it to us? It's worth a shot!"
So they tried to frighten us into giving it to them.
We managed to call their bluff and viola. Back to business as normal.
The fact that today everything suddenly seems nice and normal again, with the market way up sorta seems like Wall Street is admitting that the whole extortion try didn't work and they're moving on.
I think it was as simple as that.
What these guys do is try to make money. And the ends justifies the means. Their system, their game, is utterly amoral. They know it and we should know it. They will do everything they can to make money within the framework of rules that exist, and they will push just beyond the limits of those rules and try to get away with it, and they will also, at the same time, constantly try to get the rules changed by any means possible.
It's kind of like germs and your immune system. As soon as the germs run your immune system, like with HIV, you're dead.

Nothing of the sort, and perhaps at the same time, exactly that. I believe the universe is structered with mind boggling complexity, with repeating recursive symbol, meaning, function, and order at every level. In a sense there is no such thing as coincidence, but at the same time, the form allows for coincidence and accident. i believe the universe is steadily improving itself. It may be the reason that the universal constants are less constant than we thought.
I'd love to know what the physisists among us think of that.
You see patterns because the patterns exist, but imposing meaning upon the patterns is like trying to interpret every breeze as a specific sign. Even if it was, it would still be impossible to navigate, because the perception itself is imperfect.
Does that make any sense?
Perhaps this discussion needs to find it's own thread. Sorry for the extended derail!

Norway’s foreign minister says country is ready to recognize a Palestinian state
Video: The Palestinian president said Friday that he will ask the U.N. Security Council next week to endorse his statehood bid, a step that would risk a threatened U.S. veto in the council.
By Associated Press, Updated: Sunday, September 18, 9:23 AM
OSLO, Norway — Norway’s foreign minister says the Scandinavian country will back Palestinian officials in their appeal to the U.N. for statehood.
In a Facebook post late Saturday, Jonas Gahr Stoere wrote “Palestinians have the right to go to the U.N.” and Norway is “ready to recognize a Palestinian state.”
He also urged for talks to start between Israel and Palestinians, saying “only negotiations can solve things between Israel and Palestinians.”
Frustrated by their inability to win concessions from Israel, the Palestinians have tried to gain attention with a high stakes wager on statehood and U.N. membership.
On Sunday, senior U.S. and European officials will meet to try to find a way to bring Israel and the Palestinians back to stalled negotiations.

Oslo Police District spokesman Roar Hansen says a photograph published by Norwegian internet news service ABC Nyheter on Thursday is authentic and came from monitoring cameras at government headquarters.
Mr Hansen said that the picture has not been released by police but was part of a confidential police report submitted to lawyers assisting relatives and survivors of the July 22 attacks.
Breivik detonated the bomb, then drove to a youth camp on the island of Utoya where he killed 69 people in a shooting spree.
Meanwhile, a Norwegian appeals court decided on Thursday that the self-confessed killer of 77 people in two July 22 attacks will appear behind closed doors in his court appearance next week.
