Remember, when you read or hear "Anti-Chriist, visualize: FOX = 666

Remember, when you hear or read the word "Anti-Christ", visualize:
FOX = 666.

Here's the thing about numerology: it is pretty consistent cross
culturally, at least coming out of Africa. Asian numerology has a
similar sense of otherness to me that the numerology of the Kabala
has, although Asian and Jewish numerology are other from each other,
if you see what you mean. The fact is, the numerology of the Tarot is
a pretty useful bridge between the numerology of the Tree of Life in
Kabala and the numerology I associate with the Year of the Dragon
astrology of China. And, of course, the Tarot and the Old Testament
are just totally intermixed. Which is why Kabala emerges after the
Diaspora. This is all what I call metaphysical artifacts of human
thought and applied wisdom.

The mention of the Tower of Babel in Biblical mythology is a reference
to the university system of Egypt, which was the nexus of African
inquiry and became the cradle of Western Civilization,
epistemologically. One of the reasons, if not the reason, why the
pyramids were built were as extremely stable astronomical platforms.
What ever the Tower of Babel actually is in pre-history of the mythos
of Moses, it is an exercise in diversity. The thing you got to
remember about Moses is that he wants to give all credit to his
version of The One for the progress of human inquiry and social
efficacy. From the Pharaohs, you can trace 2 distinct quests for the
godhead, Greek and Jewish. You can make the argument that the Jews
came first, but, then, you also have to stipulate to the fact that
Jewish culture mitigated for Jewish thought to become a cul-de-sac,
reflected metaphorically in the fact that Jerusalem was in a little
cul-de-sac of commerce and off the global trade routes. And Jewish
thought advanced, at that time, around issues of aesthetics, which is
to say, nominally organized around the collective relationship with
The One. The Greeks likewise proceed towards the Aesthetic, but they
are at the same time trying to discover metaphysics in order to
abstract the essence of The One in order to not only intensify the
experience, but to achieve a reliable outcome from the process of the
quest. The Greeks were trying to get away from the magical thinking
of Egyptian priests while Moses was just improving upon their
application.

And then Socrates came along and introduced The Ethic as a superior
method for pursuing The Aesthetic (for all intents and purposes, the
godhead of any culture and the Aesthetic are the same thing. The
problem with the Aesthetic is that the individual experience of the
godhead is exactly like the ***: everyone has one. John Hagee and
I agree on the general nature of the godhead because we both stipulate
to The Apostle's Creed. However, my experience of the godhead
includes Yaweh, Queen of Battle, and his doesn't and nothing else in
his bloated bag of gas he is peddling as faith and glory is worth the
price of admission without it.). Where the Aesthetic reflects our
relationship with God, the Ethic reflects our relationship to man as a
proxy for God, which is why anyone who saw the Passion of the Christ
and is still intellectually enthusiastic about the death penalty or
embraces Cheney's enthusiasm for Gitmo, doesn't get Jesus.

Anyway, Socrates introduces The Ethic and rams the lesson home with
his own martyrdom to make the point and Plato, like Moses, runs away
goes into exile and then comes home and creates a tradition of inquiry
that originates in the relationship of humanity to itself as a point
of departure, in a Golden Rule kind of way and then expanded to the
relationship of humanity to itself as a point of departure in its
relationship with the cosmos. Plato's method, and intent, was to gaze
as directly on the godhead in order to divine the progress of the
process, which was, of course, an appeal to the Aesthetic in a manner
pretty accurately portrayed in The 300, but with the intent to extract
direct knowledge of the Forms from which the material world is
modeled. In effect, Plato proposes to employ the same blue prints
that are used to sustain the material world (by "material world", I
mean what John Hagee means in his definition of 4 as "Earth", which is
to say the elements of existence which respond to Newtonian mechanics
and subsequent physics.) by direct observation. Aristotle comes along
and fundamentally stipulates to Plato's construct of "the Forms", but
suggests that, although the material world is a dim reflection of the
glory of the Forms, it is never-the-less a reflection of the Forms
and, by carefully observing and manipulating this admittedly inferior
reflection of the Forms, we can begin to strip away the corruption of
the material world and compare the result with the product of Plato's
method of inquiry and, if not actually reproducing the Forms at
command, create a collection of strategies and structures to achieve
desirable outcomes in our stewardship of creation and our fellowship
with each other. These strategies and structures are the metaphysics
the Greeks before Socrates was trying to invent and the intent of the
Tower of Babel in Biblical legend. F=MA is one of those artifacts and
it was the Greek embrace of the Ethic as a result of the death of
Socrates that made this possible.

And the important lesson I take from the Gospel of Mark is that Jesus,
as an element of the same godhead John Hagee recognizes in the
Apostle's Creed, is that, in order to fulfill the Law of Moses (which
is an Aesthetic system), He, Jesus, must submit to the Roman rule of
law (which is an Ethic system). Which he does and, by so doing,
sanctifies Socrates martyrdom in the same cause. My view of the Law
of Moses, as a Christian, is that it, the X (Roman numeral ten)
Commandments is that they are an empty tomb. They served their
purpose, that is, to deliver the epitome of Jewish thought and
behavior to a singular existential event that confirms the individual
experience of the godhead and endorses the social organization which
has evolved into English common law and the US Constitution. But the
X Commandments have no more practical relevance to my relationship
with the godhead outlined in The Apostle's Creed than bicycles have to
fish. Jesus makes it pretty clear to me that God agrees with
Socrates and considers the Ethic to be a superior paradigm of human
organization than the Aesthetic and history tends to support this
position.

For example, the Roman republic was organized around the Ethic and was
757 years old when Jesus was born (according to Lew Wallace in "Ben
Hur"). When it became The Holy Roman Empire, it was re-organized
around the Aesthetic, it fell apart within 300 years. When the
rebellious slave states left the Union, they re-organized themselves
around the same Aesthetic which had informed the Articles of
Confederation and it didn't even last 5 years. John Hagee, and all
the Zionist Fascists I associate with the Karl Rove wing of the GOP,
have been trying to reorganize America around the same Aesthetic as
informed the Articles of Confederation and Katrina, the Minneapolis
Bridge and Cheney's plan of operation for the occupation are just 3
examples of the sort of *** that occurs when these people touch
anything. It is sort of a reverse Midas Touch that captures perfectly
the logical outcome of conservatism.

And all this stuff started with numerology. Before Man was, number
is. Number existed in the mind of the godhead before The Big Bang.
It is not the godhead, but it is a Platonic Form, sure as ***. If
you are looking for cosmic certainty, number is that thing. It is not
the only thing, but it is sure handy to have around the house.

I do numerology pretty much the way my dad used to do NY Times cross
word puzzles: I enjoy the process and I use ink. I have a little
dyslexia and I didn't know it until I was 30 or so. My dad was one of
those accountants who could glance at a column of figures and give you
a sum, not unlike Rain Man, only dad had controlling variety across a
vast range of skill sets in addition. So, it used to make him crazy
doing arithmetic homework with me, because he thought I was just being
lazy when I transposed a number copying from a text book. Or to
aggravate him, on purpose. Only, I wasn't. It happens just a
naturally as running my eyes along a line of symbols and thinking
"cymbals" and then misspelling "simbals" somewhere else.

Well, when I went to Indiana, I took a class in finite math and a guy
that was auditing the class turned me on to numerology as a figure of
speech in literature and actually doing numerology seems to help me
quell my dyslexia. As a teller, it continued to be a problem, but
they have techniques for isolating its effects and making
corrections. Plus, for some reason, feeding numbers into a key pad
seem to defeat it and the combination of calculators, numerology and
whatever gift of interpretation I developed in literature at IU gave
me an unexpected skill set in credit and financial analysis. But I
can't even balance my check book with any reliability nor did I have
any success in accounting or as a book keeper for a restaurant. It
just ain't going to happen.

So, I know a lot about numerology, just for fun, in the same way Bill
Gates understands 0,1 base numerology. And the numerology John Hagee
and everyone connected with the Left Behind cult of jesus freaks and
snake handlers employs to interpret the Bible, generally, and
Revelation, in particular, is a pre-metaphysical progressive process
that emerges directly from the Aesthetic as it is reflected in the
material world. In particular, there are 7 colors in the rainbow and
dividing the solar year into chucks of time containing 7 sunsets
almost duplicates the lunar cycle, with 1 day left over, and, if you
design a social system where a male and female have sex one day every
chunk of times, leaving out any day during the menstrual cycle, an
abundance of children will be a reliable result. Which is the kind of
thing the Tower of Babel was commissioned to reveal.

But I digress. In terms of Revelation, 7 is the important anchor
between the existential events of the Gospel of Mark, Revelation and
abstract history on the Hegelian model, that is, the progression of
the progression. Jesus dies in the 7 hour. Pilate is surprised at
the sudden death of Jesus and calls the centurion in charge to verify
the fact. Jesus picks the 7th hour in order to fulfill all the
prophecy Matthew cites exactly for the reasons Matthew claims,
including actually dying at the perfect time, numerologically.

Again, John Hagee is exactly correct that 7 was a perfect number in
Jewish numerology and Jesus picks that moment to die for exactly that
reason. This is exactly the moment the Lamb showing the signs of
recent slaughter appears in Revelation. We know within 4 days when
this actually occurs. For numerological purposes, I assume it was the
Good Friday which occurs on the day which will make the fall of
Jerusalem to occur in AD 74, instead of AD 70. It doesn't matter.
Within the context of John Hagee's version of Jesus, the fall of
Jerusalem occurs in AD 70. It suits my purpose.

Jesus dies in the 7th hour and Jerusalem falls in the 70th year and
you multiply 7 times 70 in the manner of Jesus, the result is 490,
which reduces initially to 13 and this number is the finger of the
godhead and it touches history twice, once when Jesus dies and once
when Jerusalem is destroyed by Rome and there is an essential
relationship that God, the Father, in John Hagee's experience of that
aspect of the godhead, wants us, God's Children, to connect in the
sort of doubling Joseph points out to Pharaoh. I mean, if you really
believe in this *** and you are looking for God peeking through the
literature of the Bible, He has the crinkly merry eyes of Saint Nick.
If nothing else, God, the Father, wants us to acknowledge and consider
the karmic relationship between the legal inequity execution of Jesus
represents and the fall of Jerusalem is established by God. Take
Heed! is the transliteration of this number 490.

But that's not all: God, the Father also wants to make clear that the
7th Seal is broken in AD 70. This is the trinity of the death of
Jesus, the fall of Jerusalem and the 7th Seal: 777. (Zero is an
invention of Islam and did not exist in the mind of God before the Big
Bang. Genesis 1:2 seems to anticipate the concept, but God can not
express nothing. Anyway, dropping zero is actually consistent with
the numerology of Jesus and the Gospel of Mark.) This sort of
triangulation is an example of what I mean when I say that a meaning
for the letter 3 is metaphysics. I agree with Hagee conditionally in
the meaning of 3 being The Trinity. Yes, and.... By metaphysics, I mean
artifacts of human imagination, such as language and geometry and
metaphor, which we employ for collective problem solving and action
planning. By 3, I mean all the ideas in all the books in all the
libraries in all the world and the tools to create them and test them
and judge them and improve them and reject them when they are ***.
Like Newt Gingrich says, ideas are important. But ideas are a dime a
dozen and, until you test them and judge them so that you can employ
them with zero defects and necessary achievement, you can't tell the
difference between apple pie and road apples. Revelation ends the
saga of Jesus Christ, Super Star and that is the real celebration of
Easter. Easter is like Ground Hog's day, but it is like John Hagee,
as a proxy for all the brain dead Intelligent Design jesus freak,
never learns to get the girl. They like the way things start out and
blame everyone else when things go to ***.

Here's something else to chew on, numerologically. 666 reduces to 9
in 2 steps. Hitler reduces to 9 in 2 steps. If ever there was
someone who fits the role of the Anti-Christ, Hitler's the guy.
Hitler lost. We whipped the Anti-Christ in 1945. It's like the
Rapture set didn't get the memo: we won. I mean, you could make a
good argument, numerological, that Hitler is the natural result of
Barabas being released and his defeat is the natural result of the
Resurrection. But the Left Behind version of Revelation makes a good
serial literature, but in all categories except as Zionist Fascist
doctrine, it is crap.

Revelation is more like an epilogue to the Bible, a moment when the
voice behind the narrative voice drops the 4th wall and speaks
directly to its audience. Revelation, The Book of Job and The Koran
and the red verses in the 4 Gospels and Acts are literally received
directly from the godhead and are Platonic Forms made substantial.

And that's the truth
