Some years ago, for no obvious reason, Paul Whiteman felt compelled
to analyse the mystical number 666, also known as the number of The
Beast. His little mathematical revelation was followed almost
immediately by a violent thunderstorm, and by a severe attack of
asthma requiring urgent hospital admission. The concurrence of
these scary events with his dabbling in the occult was probably
coincidental. But the episode prompted Paul to further investigate
numbers and the beliefs associated with them, the culmination of
this research being 666 and All That. The initial chapters provide
a pertinent review of the history and nature of numbers, number
systems and the numbers of time. Relevant interpretations of the
Revelation of St John are presented, taking into account both
exoteric and esoteric views. Particular attention is given to the
prevalence of sixes and sevens. This all provides the background to
his interpretation of the code, 666. The obsession with numbers and
supernatural apocalypses may say more about the nature of the human
mind than some association with the spirit world. So far, the
attempts of seers to prospectively predict a doomsday have been
unimpressive. But the most likely causes of apocalyptic events in
the 21st Century are, surely, rather obvious. Unchecked, they may
be associated with a major evolutionary divergence - without the
help of supernatural intervention. Paul discusses these issues, and
the nature of the spirit that drives modern human evolution in this
complex and fascinating read.
