In my opinion they are just numbers. No bad luck or evil attached to them. People attach these things to them for various reasons, but I don't believe in that kind of thing. Just like people making everyday words mean other things ("gay" "queer" etc). It all just seems silly to me.

You are right they are just numbers. Perhaps many bad things have happened to those people with regards to #s 666 and 13. I brought this discussion because of so many superstitious beliefs I have heard regarding 666 and 13, like Friday the 13th, Judas is the 13th disciples who..., the devil's # is 666 etc. Thanks for your comments
