#2 Maybe she should check up on the subject - dudette, it may be a publishing error from the original.

616
Fragment from Papyrus 115 with number 616

In May 2005, it was reported that scholars at Oxford University using advanced imaging techniques had been able to read previously illegible portions of a manuscript which stated 616 instead of as the majority of texts which state 666.[11] The existence of manuscripts attesting to 616 had also been noted before this finding. Another early witness Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus (C) (a palimpsest) has it written in full: ἑξακόσιοι δέκα ἕξ, hexakosioi deka hex (lit. "six hundred and sixteen").[12] This, along with the translation of P115, has led some scholars to conclude that 616 is the original number of the beast.[13]

The NRSV translation for Rev 13:18 includes this translation note: "Other ancient authorities read six hundred and sixteen".

#3 Well my heavy metal albums disagree with the 616biz and they should know.

#4 I didn't care much for her foster parent self-accolades either. I'll give her a zero, zero, zero.

#5 That is soooo stupid, Bachmann. I am so disappointed.

#7 Can someone please explain why Bachmann and Cain and both shilling for Romney? Is Perry the only one running against Romney now?

#8 I fear we may all soon be reading from the... Book of Romney. I hope this isn't some sort of pre-planned, faith based conversion to temple moon worship.

#10 There is one 'positive' I get out of all this.

Those not fit for the job (POTUS) self-identify. (Bammy did, but most weren't paying attention.)

Looks like it will be Mittens.

#11 Looks like it will be Mittens.

And he'll be a placeholder manager for the 25% of GDP government until 2016, when we'll get another Democrat, or maybe Obama again.

Right, or her "I'm not just a lawyer, I have an LL.M. too" self-accolades. Yes, she is still just a lawyer - one who puffs up an easy-peasy one-year program in tax law as an "advanced research degree," just like that super-genius "Constitutional Law Professor" we've already got.

She gets a zero, zero, zero from me too.
