  1. Hi worthy Tech loving Christians. Does reading the information below by putting your fingerprint on this screen until SELECT ALL prompt appears, then pressing on this prompt to reveal the real agenda, make you question how, where and in what form that cursed mark of the beast will want to seduce your curiosity into acceptance? [Unapproved Formatting Removed by Admin] The number 666 in Chinese is written as "六六六" (liù liù liù). In Chinese culture, the number 6 (六, liù) is considered lucky because it sounds similar to the word for "smooth" or "slick" (流, liú), suggesting things will go smoothly. E-commerce: The number 666 is often used in e-commerce in Chinese-speaking countries (like China, Taiwan, Hong Kong). It's not uncommon to see prices listed as 666 yuan or see it as part of promotional campaigns, because the number 6 is considered lucky and associated with smoothness, prosperity, or success in Chinese culture. Social Media & Online Slang: In platforms like WeChat, Weibo, or Douyin (TikTok) in China, 666 is a popular internet slang expression. It is often used to show admiration or approval, similar to saying "great job!" or "awesome!" in English. It’s especially prevalent in gaming communities and online content, where people might type "666" to praise someone for a particularly good performance. Mobile Gaming: In the mobile gaming scene, 666 is a common form of praise. It’s used to commend a player for excellent gameplay, much like how players might say "GG" (Good Game) in Western gaming communities. 2. Southeast Asia: In Southeast Asian countries with significant Chinese-speaking populations (like Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia), 666 is often understood in the same way as in China, due to the cultural influence of Chinese numerology. It may be used in advertisements, social media, and marketing campaigns to evoke luck or good fortune. 3. Taiwan and Hong Kong: In Taiwan and Hong Kong, where the Chinese-speaking population is familiar with numerology, 666 could be used in product branding, pricing, or promotions in the same way it's used in mainland China. It’s likely to be accepted as a lucky number in these contexts, though the more ominous connotations associated with 666 in other cultures (like the Christian "number of the beast") are less significant in these regions. 4. E-Commerce and Product Branding: Online Shopping Platforms: In Chinese-speaking e-commerce platforms like Taobao, JD.com, or Tmall, the number 666 is commonly seen in product pricing and names. For example, a product priced at 666 yuan might be chosen for its auspicious connotations, as 6 is considered a lucky number. Branding: Companies may use the number 666 in branding, product names, or advertisements to attract customers. In some cases, this number is used for its good luck associations, especially in regions where numerology plays an important role in consumer behavior. 5. Internet Memes & Digital Communities: In certain online communities or internet memes, 666 can be seen as a playful or humorous symbol. While the number's connection to Satanic or apocalyptic meanings in Western Christianity may cause some people to avoid using it, it is generally accepted and widely used in internet culture, particularly in East Asia where it has a different connotation. 6. Popular Culture: The number 666 may appear in movies, television shows, books, or video games that have a global audience, particularly where the East Asian market is involved. Its presence might be used for symbolic, humorous, or marketing purposes. In this case, it could be understood by the audience in different ways, depending on their cultural context. 7. Western Contexts (with Caveats): While 666 is often avoided in Western contexts due to its strong association with the "number of the beast" in Christianity and its apocalyptic implications, it can still be found in art, music, and entertainment. In Western pop culture, the number may be used deliberately to evoke mystique or to symbolize rebellion, horror, or other darker themes. In Western gaming or online communities, the number might occasionally be used ironically or for humorous purposes, though its usage is more likely to be controversial depending on the context. 8. Digital Payment Systems: In Chinese mobile payment systems like Alipay and WeChat Pay, users may choose the number 666 as part of their username, handle, or even for promotional offers or deals. It can symbolize prosperity or good fortune, so it is well-accepted in the context of mobile payments, where auspicious numbers are often used. 9. Numerology and Fortune-Telling: In numerology and fortune-telling practices, especially those rooted in Chinese beliefs, 666 might be seen as a positive number. It is sometimes used for predictions or choosing auspicious dates or times, especially in practices that draw on the symbolism of numbers for good luck. Conclusion:

  4. There is no such thing as a natural born killer, even satan once dwelled in heaven. -------------------------------- Made me chuckle.
  5. He gave Adam free will anyway and allowed man the freedom to rebel against God's orders. ............................. ...................................... Scholars of Jonah's story might say something very different to what your saying here .
  6. Then why say for...NOW ....I know with Abraham while Peter is a.. You Will.. Is there some other factor involved between these two characters that made one apparently easier to foretell than the other?
  7. How would that point of view explain what happened with Jonah's decision to disobeyi God ?
  8. Are we saying that Adam was set up to fail?
  9. Genesis 22: 12] He said, "Do not lay your hand on the lad or do anything to him; for...... NOW ......I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me." Is this passage not blasphemous? It reads as God not knowing that Abraham would follow through?

  11. I'm talking metaphorically and not literally with the subject title. But If not then why test Abraham with the ordeal of sacrificing his son ? And what the point of rolling the dice of infinite faces when already knowing the number it will land on when thrown? Does the Abraham story confirms the notion of true unpredictable randomness existing ?
  12. Oh yes farouk, E.M is quite the R.Branson equivalent but just that little bit more wealthier !! LoL He Seems to be heading a lot of business and media/communication agencies https://youtu.be/d4LBPk8OUhI?si=Tj4KrQn48kzrabqP While making friends in the middle east with ArabSat. Forward video to 5:40 mins - 7:01 mins
  13. On reflection, maybe we could or should have used the word dragon instead to describe that - dare I say - Booster rocket!! Afterall in this day and age, if our most intelligent leaders can do as you and me have done, and apply such ancient descriptions to spacecrafts, then maybe we're not as wacko as people might think !?
  14. Hi Nebular you Rose to the challenge. Good on you. I will copy what you've described in capital letters, and use lower case letters to indicate where I have replaced your words with ones more befitting those used in the bible of similar type wonderous events. WELL SINCE....... IT accended and descended IN THE SAME PLACE, THE PEOPLE beheld a great standing pillar filled with great fire, and with great fire coming from beneath it ASCEND TO THE HEAVENS, AND behold another great Pillar of smaller stature decended from heaven TO EARTH with another pillar made from FIRE coming down from beneath it in full view of the people!
  15. Are you forgeting that you're able to confidently say what you said in your last sentence with the benefit and knowledge of having grown up and lived in THIS technological age? I challenge you to take off those modern day spectacles your wearing and imagine yrself back in the biblical age of Moses or Elijah; knowing about horses, goats, sling shots, chariots etc; and where you didn't have NASA or SpaceX, Coca cola, electricity ot TV around because they hadn't been created yet. Seriously; watch this video clip again and without using ANY of our modern day vernacular / technical words like booster or rocket ship. Imagine how you would best describe seeing (for the very first time ) that booster and it's landing to people who were not able to witness it. Would your account vastly differ from how such events of fire coming down from heaven to earth are decribed in the bible? I'll do exactly the same and give you a similar short account of how I might have described it in biblical times when you've done this. My answer might surprise even you! Okay?
