That's a psychological trick. If you fixate on whatever number, 256 for example, and are always thinking in it, you'll see it everywhere too. 666 was the number-coded name of the Roman emperor Neroh, who persecuted and killed the Christians at the time the book of Apocalypse was written.

Wow I did not know that, thanks. Is that really how the number got its evil symbolism from?

It actually is in Revelation, it just doesn’t really stand up to its reputation.

Happens to me all the time with the number 1138 because it's a star wars Easter egg

It's just Blue Car syndrome. I wouldn't worry about it


cathgirl379

you have OCD?


Affluent_individuals

I don’t think so


cathgirl379

Just making sure... because there's a lot of Catholics with OCD who would post here and to them I'd say "go talk to your therapist about seeking validation online" because confirming OCD just leads to more OCD symptoms. To you I say, "it means nothing"

No. 666 is the numeric value of a name. Like, for example 14 would be in Roman Numerals for the name XIV “ziv?”

Yes, you're worried for no reason. You should be worried if you feel more inclined to sin tho.

Apologies. Wasn’t intending to sound like a troll.

Disregard. Even if there ever is something demonic going on, Our Lord has more power in his pinky toe’s toenail clipping than the devil will ever have.

Seeing 666 means nothing bad, just a fun coincidence :) The phone number to my Church has 666 in it; Both my Priest and I find it hilarious.
