Superstitious Swedes ban 666
Does this mean that Sweden has discovered a new respect for the Bible? It is in Revelations 13:18 that 666 is identified as the mark of the Devil
A MAN in Sweden was ordered to change his motorcycle license plates after authorities ruled his current registration number -- 666 -- was "offensive".
The man, from Falkoping, 390km southwest of Stockholm, had the number registered since 2007.
However, the Swedish Transport Agency apparently had a change of heart when he tried to renew his registration last week, news website The Local reported yesterday.
The agency informed the man, who was not named, that the triple six number would be de-registered.
"The number combination of 666 may be offensive to some," authorities said in a letter to the motorcyclist. "The Swedish Transport Agency therefore has decided that you are no longer entitled to these personal number plates."
Agency rules stipulate that "a personal plate may not be designed if it causes offense or harm to anyone else."
The number 666 is regarded by some to represent the Antichrist or the Devil. Some people take the number's association with Satan so seriously that they assiduously avoid things related to triple six.

Thats the number of the beast the antichrist and a Liberal
It's also been shown that the actual Hebrew equivalent is not 666 in these arabic numerals.
But surely anything might be considered "offensive" to some group, so are we all going to be frozen in a state of inertia for fear of offending somebody?
Likely, it is because 666 is seen as being anti-Christian, purposefully intending to cause offense towards a certain group. It would be like ILVKKK. While professing allegiance with a specific political organization it is also intended to cause offense to a certain group(s) which the State should not be in the business of endorsing, one way, or the other. However, if he were to put on a bumper sticker that said 666, that is his personal expression and cannot be mistaken as in coordination with the State.
Religion wrecks everything.
I remember a T-shir which said:
"668 - Neighbour of the Beast"
Helena Blavatsky suggests that the names Saturn and Israel were synonymous to the ancients.

Are we not all Hu men ?
Why so enamored with this particular "Israel"... The Daughter of Saturn is Truth, and Jesus Christ the Kelt was wedded to the Truth. He was thus, perhaps, the Son in Law of and respected by Saturn the Lawgiver.

Swedish bureaucrats are getting crazier by the day. Instead of paying them to waste their time on silly issues like this, the taxpayers should pay them to have their heads examined.
