Talking point

Life is complex.

There are very many systems of numerology. Under one of the simplest (applicable to Latin-alphabet languages), A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9, J=1, K=2, L=3, M=4, N=5, O=6, P=7, Q=8, R=9, S=1, T=2, U=3, V=4, W= 5, X=6, Y=7, Z=9.


Under that system, Ian Robert Millard would be:

Ian 9+1+5 = 15. Then 1+5 = 6.

Robert 9+6+2+5+9+2 = 33. Then 3+3 = 6.

Millard 4+9+3+3+1+9+4 = 33. Then 3+3 = 6.

So Ian Robert Millard = 666.

Life is not that simple, though. I am not “the Beast” or, indeed, the ruler of the world but, like Parzival/Parsifal, a human soul hopefully “slowly wise“, and living the quietest and most peaceful and obscure of lives, at least most of the time.

Something has to be done to reverse this situation.
