ON JUNE 6 2006 (6606) IF THE FIRST OF TWO RAPTURES HAS NOT HAPPENED AND ANTICHRIST HAS NOT DECLARED HIMSELF ON WORLD SIMULCAST TELEVISION, THEN I (PASTOR HARRY) WILL REVEAL THE TRUE NAME AND IDENTITY OF THE ANTICHRIST AT 11:05 PM EST ON THIS SITE AND ON DOOMSDAY TALK RADIO, OUR INTERNET RADIO BROADCAST.

I thought people realized by now that the whole 666 thing was a mistake. Somehow it got read upside down, and really we have to watch out for 999 — which gives us a few more years. (Although, again, how 9909 equals 999 is beyond me.) This guy (who has an equally bad web designer) understands. He points out that there are nine numbers in banking records, Zip Codes, and Social Security numbers. Which, again, means we're doomed. p.s. Actually, the UPS tracking code for our area in rural Maine is 666. Or maybe 999 — at least that's what gets scrawled on all our packages. Although I thought the Devil would be dressed in black, not brown.

He missed the apocalypse again! God, as a manager, constantly likes to blow deadlines and relies on very arbitrary scheduling for his projects. Let's face it the whole business started off messed up. His first two employees he let's get married? Then he hires a talking snake? And he forbids them from seeking job training from the "tree of knowledge?" That type of management style is a recipe for low morale and incompetence. So we should not be surprised by how things have turned out. He seems to like to delegate but he is very spotty with performance reviews. And when he gives one he seems to go overboard and over focuses on the negative. Case and point: Noah. He floods out the whole operation! And who's fault was it that the employees had gotten so out of control? Did the Big Man issue one clearly written and consistant employee guide book? No. He relies on his Jr. Mangers and those guys were all a bunch of vague kiss asses. I mean the Sodom branch office may have been freelancing too much, but God relies on one guy's opinion on the thing and then, instead of terse memo, a training review, what does he do? Wrath and smite. Allways with the smite. Not only that he is not a very clear communicator. We only have rumors and third hand memos of what he wants. Frankly, and I don't want this to get me any hotwater, the guy is an Absentee Boss. I mean where is he? Golfing?

The AntiChrist and a Cup of Tea uniquely offers HARD-EVIDENCE concerning the identity of the antichrist of Bible prophecy, who appears to be PRINCE CHARLES OF WALES. Prince Charles, unlike all previous candidates, fulfills the following scriptural criteria: His name calculates to 666 in both English and Hebrew; the symbols in his heraldic achievement or coat of arms are identical to those of the "first beast" of Revelation 13; he claims descent from David, Jesus, and Mohammed, but is most likely from the tribe of Dan and Odin (Satan); he literally serves the red dragon (Satan), which was central to his 1969 investiture as the Prince of Wales; he wants to be the King of Europe; he heads the United World Colleges; he steers the environmental ethics and business agendas of over 100 of the world's largest multinational corporations; he is credited for the success of the Rio Earth Summit and thus the Kyoto Protocol,

Kyoto and Earth Summit, people! I guess Al Gore will always be the man who almost was the anti-christ.

Can we consider the failure today of the Rapture to happen and the Antichrist to declare himself to be clear evidence that people who swore it would are mentally ill, and have them all committed - with compassion for their illness, of course? And perhaps as support for a movement to give the same sort of help to anyone who still believes the Rapture/Antichrist is coming soon? Won't you please help the mentally ill? They can live productive lives, if only we act now.

Beside I heard on a Christian AM radio station that the current pope is the anti-christ (JPII was still alive and the commentator said the anti-christ was a pope but not the current one and hinted that the next pope would be). What a dull place the world would be without these guys!

CRESTA : What's happen in the year 666? does anyone remember? Nothing springs to mind for 666, but 1666 gave us the Great Fire of London. Though it also gave us Isaac Newton, who split light with a prisim. At this time there is no indication that one had anything to do with the other.

Being at the front of the world as I am, I've already been right through 6/6/6 and out the other side, I'm sorry to inform you that 7/6/6 (or 6/7/6 depending on local conventions) is the same as 6/6/6 was, only perhaps a little colder (Southern Hemisphere travelling into winter, you'll understand).

What's happen in the year 666? It was after the Roman Empire fell in Europe, so there probably a whole lot of desperate subsistence farming and lousy suffering at the hands of violent, oppressive warlord "barbarians." Not a lot of records kept from that time. The Byzantine Empire was still doing quite well to the East, although they were busy fighting off the Slavs and Arabs. North Africa suffered mostly the same as Europe, the Dark Ages; the rest of Africa was mostly composed of tribal nations. The Tang dynasty was in power in China; Islam had recently been introduced there. The Japanese were in the process of adopting the Chinese alphabet and many other cultural items, which were brought to them by Korean monks. Korea was in its Three Kingdoms period and like China had contained an advanced civilization for roughly 3,000 years. The Mayans were busy building their cities, while in North America the Native Americans were making their living as they had for centuries before. Basically, the world went along roughly as it has for the entirety of modern human history... same as it's doing now, and will do in the future. The Sky God isn't going to come and destroy everything. (Thanks Wikipedia!)

I once went as satan to a halloween party. As part of my costume I bought some hair gel to slick back my hair, an eyeliner pencil to draw in a little goatee, and a plastic trident. The total came to $6.66. No joke. I saved the receipt and have it to this day.

6's considered a lucky number in some Chinese cultures - it sounds like "luck" in Hokkien. 6 couples got married yesterday (it's the 7th of June now) because they feel it's an auspicious time to get married. [Prince Charles] heads the United World Colleges; eh? How is that related to anti-Christery? And isn't the Queen of Jordan the head of the UWC? And if he claims descent from JESUS then why all the fuss on The Da Vinci Code and not him?

Hey, loquacious, I heard that. I don't have regular a/c either. It doesn't get as hot here as you're saying (which is why I don't live on the desert floor); so, YMMV: A couple of years ago I bought a Sunpentown SF-609. It's sort of a cross between a super humidifier and toned-down swamp cooler. I feed it refrigerated tap water and ice. It won't cool my whole apartment; but, it will keep my workspace nice and cool. When I sit in the direct stream it produces, it can actually get a little chilly...in the direct stream. My SF-609 is about the most lightweight such thing on the market. There are much more powerful a/c solutions which are also machines you just pull out of a box, position in your home, fill with water and turn on. Some run with hoses. I've seen some that rival real a/c. I first learned about these devices on a very hot day when I visited someone who lives much closer to the desert floor who had a much bigger one. I adopted this solution when I realized there was just no way a regular a/c was going to fit any of my windows & I wasn't about to install a real swamp cooler in a rented apartment. It was way cheaper than either of those choices. On the local weather, after several days of unseasonably hot temperatures & no Spring to speak of, we had a lovely rain today...luxurious.

Well, here's the thing, what with the three-to-four year discrepancy of the gregorian calendar from Christ's actual birth, not to mention that his birth was - by the best judgements -more likely in midsummer, and that, if Gregory were going to build aCalendar based upon the "Year of Our Lord" and have it's numerical vaules mean anything that he should maybe have set the new year on Christ's birthday instead of a week off of the Winter Solstice which is then merged with Christmas for political purposes... wait... I'm getting confused... Well maybe the Antichrist was just born today - yeah, that's it - and it won't be until after he's twelve-and-a-half until he shows his stuff. That would fit with the certainty of Christian eschatology AND the limits of ancient Mayan interior architecture! It's perfect! Seriously, though, when I was in 6th grade my school library number was 666, and the protocal had us state our number first and then our name. I usually said, "666, Satan's Child," though occasionally I mixed it up with, "666, Rosemary's Baby." Here's my question: does the fact that I was in 6th grade make me any more evil? I mean, I'm not particularly spiritual, but I'd hate to be damned by a freak coincidence of alphabetical order and archaic numerology. Also, as for 7/7/7, a lot of Harry Pooter fans, such as myself, are hoping that JKR releases Book Seven on that date, for obvious reasons for any fan. I don't know if that's a tuesday, but it would certainly make the day worth celebrating.

Back in college, we had a two person band called Threatening Strangers in the Bathroom. One of the members of this band actually had mailbox #666 in the mailroom. He wrote a song about it. If I remember, the lyrics were something like: Satan's in my mailbox It's box 6 6 6 I sacrifice students to get the mail The mail from it Oh, sure, it doesn't sound like much, but get a room of drunk 1980's college students singing to a song in the style of King Missle (before we knew there was such a thing as King Missle) and you've got yourself a party.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spritus Mundi Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert. A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds. The darkness drops again; but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
