when i was born, the hospital tried to put my mom in room 666. They were rolling her in and she went balistic.
Hospital actually ended up taking down the number, and there was never a room 666 in that hospital, they just skipped it.
sounds like you were denied your birthright

No it is not a mistranslation; its there just look. But of course for someone that doesn't believe the bible word for word, it might not count to them, but it definatlly does to me. I will not use those numbers either, I will round up on payments before I use those numbers. I do like my personnel numbers, they have 3 7's in it. Not at all saying that you don't believe in it, just saying what I believe.

By mistranslation, I meant Hebrew/ Aramaic/ Greek, not the English translation. I know its presented that was in the translations. Many Biblical scholars, I believe, show or at least argue, that this number is actually "616"

I am weird about it, too. I will add to a purchase if the amount comes up $6.66. My Dad refused a license plate that was R42-666. He told her he would drive without one before he put that on his car.

I think this is kind of interesting because, if the original numbers are indeed "616", does that change your opinion of the number "666"? Do both just to be safe?

No. It is the total that I will add to.

I mean, will you treat both numbers the same, just to be on the safe side?

With the variance in sales tax around here, it would take a calculator to figure it up. If it comes to that number, I just grab something else and throw it on the counter.
