weddings and 666

I'm on a HIGHWAY TO HELL....or so sang the lead singer of AC/DC

There was (or is) a Highway 666 in New Mexico....

Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is] Six hundred threescore [and] six. The Book of the Revelation of John.

Here is an unusual spin on getting married.....

Officials in the Netherlands have noticed an unusual number of couples setting their wedding dates for June this year. Not just any day in June but, specifically, June 6th. Although June is generally considered a popular wedding month on a world-wide scale, it seems to be drawing extra attention, as couples are hoping for an anniversary date of 666. Some assume that this is probably due to the number's Satanist association as the “number of the beast.” However, 666 is also the numerical sum of all the numbers on the roulette wheel, and we might simply be dealing here with a bunch of roulette lovers. Imagine a couple that enjoys gambling so much, the roulette wheel especially – and we shall refrain from using the word “addicts” - that they want to wed on such a creative date. The groom would remain in the classic black tuxedo, while the bride would wear red, to represent the other color of the roulette numbers. The Best Man and the Maid of Honor, representing the 0 and 00 (they can battle between them which is which), would wear the green, and the rest of the bride's maids would be dressed in various colors to represent the playing chips.
