I don't think its a very Christian game. the knights are just as powerful...
ever noticed this?
6 x 6 = 36 ( three sixes, ok obvious)
8 x 8 = 64 (chess board)
10 x 10 = 100 = 36 + 64
6,8,10 - that is a 3,4,5 triangle - Pythagoras discovered this and somehow managed to create a religion based on it -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagoreanism
Also shock! there is this myth / possibly truth that the first book printed in English was the instructions for chess - not the Bible!
"While in the Low Countries he printed another book in English, The Play of Chess. It was also translated by Caxton himself, from Jean de Vignay’s French translation of Jacobus de Cessolis’s Latin original. This is Caxton’s first dated work, finished 31 March 1474.
The Play of Chess was another text popular at the Burgundian court, an allegory of fixed social structures where each rank has its allotted role. This book was dedicated to George, Duke of Clarence, the brother of Edward IV and, perhaps more importantly, of Margaret of York, who promoted the cause of her favourite brother, the ‘false, fleeting, perjured Clarence’, as he is described in Shakespeare’s Richard III. Not surprisingly, given Clarence’s fall from grace, the dedication does not appear in the second edition of the book dated c.1483. "

Maybe you should ask greenpawn34 on the Chess Forum this question, since he is the RHP resident expert on everything dealing with chess.

So is chess in any way related? 🙄
I think you have been spending too much time on the Internet.

I noticed that you divided by two there. And two is the base in binary. Computers are based on binary. Maybe the computer and the internet are occult too!
This is terrible, every second number is divisible by two! I think we will have to stick to odd numbers from now on or we might be in big trouble!

Ahhh. But 3 and 5 are also occult numbers and they are odd... So I think all numbers are occult and thus anything that includes numbers is occult...
This obviously means that the bible is occult as it has numbers in it too...

3 is occultist, except if it's the trinity. 6 is the number of man and the mark of the beast in triplicate, but it is the correct number of points on a star (the star of David), whereas 5 points on an upside-down star is satanic.

See? Theism makes numbers [b]fun![/b]
No I still think that messing with the mind bending size of 3^^^3 was more fun.

I have been looking, unsuccessfully, for proof on the net that you can make a 64 point torus and a 36 point sphere / football.
That will be proof that we are ruled by a giant satanic octopus with a torus / donut for a brain, who invented chess. It's all true... just needs proving 🙂
