Coincidence?
DEVILISH DEBATE: CHURCH MOTION GETS THE NUMBER 666
Eyebrows were raised in Britain's House of Commons yesterday when a motion calling for the Church of England to be disestablished was listed with the number 666, symbol of the Antichrist.
"This number is supposed to be the mark of the Devil. It looks as though God or the Devil have been moving in mysterious ways," said Bob Russell, a Liberal Democrat lawmaker among those proposing the motion for debate.
"What is even stranger is that this motion was tabled last night when MPs were debating blasphemy," he added.
The motion calls for an end to the formal link between church and state in England - embodied in the Queen, who is both head of state and head of the Church of England.
Nah, but apt.
