![The significance of 12 [1024x818 - 140KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/SgNkDu.jpg){kind=link}
"Why don't you just make 10 a little louder and make 10 be the top number?"
"Ours go to 12."
Let's look at the important numbers in Christianity.
1 God.
Husband and wife. Smallest creation.
Holy trinity. 3 denials of Jesus. Faith, hope, love. Third day.
Commandments. Virgins.
Apostles. 12 tribes.
40 days and 40 nights it rained. Jesus ascended 40 days after easter.
Hard to not see significance all around you when you've made every number under the sun significant.
Every number is significant.
Consider, beginning with 0, it is significant for obvious reasons. As is 1, and so on. Suppose then you finally hit an “insignificant” number. Then it becomes the “smallest insignificant number”. Which is, of course, significant.
I see Poal lists are as useless as Voat lists. You tried typing 1, 2, 3, 10, 12, 40, and got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

The Pythagoreans had a significance for many of these lower numbers. Then there are the Platonic solids. I think Kabbalah ascribes a cosmic significance to all of the numbers 1-12 as well. I don't know what the parallels in the Vedas might be. They liked their astrology though too.
Who was the first to recognize the importance of 69?
