The End

So much for 06-06-2006 aka 666. There was no rise of the evil one, no rapture and all in all it was just another day. Was I really expecting that the significance of 666 or number of the beast could be placed into a date, in a day, in a month, in a year? One would think a little more imagination is needed to paint the landscape of the apocalypse. Perhaps a more creative take on the said number can be illustrated. What if the true significance were in the idea that 666 could be the fatal number for humanity when processor speeds reached 666GHz...would then machines become aware and thus enslave humanity with barcodes tatooed on our foreheads. It is a human number and the computer processor is indeed a Man made housing for artificial intelligence. Perhaps the outcome of humanities fate lies in the evolution of the microprocessor. Will we create a sentient being made from silicon or some other carbon fibre hybrid. Will such a sentient being frown upon it's creator for giving it consciousness, for giving it a soul? Do we as conscious beings frown upon the creator that gave us a soul?

We await the end. It is coming!
