666 The Number of the Beast

Earlier this evening I noticed my follower number inching towards the infamous number 666

Wikileaks provides the following citation:

The Roman numeral for 666, DCLXVI, has exactly one occurrence of all symbols whose value is less than 1000 in decreasing order (D = 500, C = 100, L = 50, X = 10, V = 5, I = 1). In the Textus Receptus manuscripts of the New Testament, the Book of Revelation (13:17–18) cryptically asserts 666 to be "man's number" or "the number of a man" (depending on how the text is translated) associated with the Beast, an antagonistic creature that appears briefly about two-thirds into the apocalyptic vision. Some manuscripts of the original Greek use the symbols χξϛ chi xi stigma (or ϝ digamma), while other manuscripts spell out the number in words.
In modern popular culture, 666 has become one of the most widely recognized symbols for the Antichrist or, alternatively, the devil. The number 666 is purportedly used to invoke Satan. Earnest references to the number occur both among apocalypticist Christian groups and in explicitly anti-Christian subcultures. References in contemporary Western art or literature are, more likely than not, intentional references to the Beast symbolism.

I sat and watched. 663 - 664 - 665 ... who was going to be the (un)lucky no.666? Just 10 minutes ago I had my answer.

I quickly loaded up SteemDB and checked. The lucky ~~victim~~ follower was Hive account@mmatrics and looking at the profile is a freshly born Steemian in need of followers. I promptly followed and then loaded my wallet and sent a small token of my appreciation.
