Just because I want to throw in a little more confusion... I mean support toward the number 3...
George Burns, the actor... one of his biggest roles was playing God in the movie Oh God! The movie was a big enough hit to spawn off a sequel called Oh God! Book Two, which spawned off Oh God! You Devil. And though it's been a long time since I've watched one of these movies, I vaguely remember God as being based on the Christian god, and I'm not saying FIRST is in any way pushing the Christian religion on anyone, I'm bringing it up because one of the big components of the Christian religion is the Holy Trinity (which is, of course, the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.) See, three.
And as someone pointed out, in the Life of Pi, the main character is a practicing Hindu, Islam and Christian. And of course I could get even more silly and point out that the title is three words and that the first chapter starts on page three...
Gems cut from amethyst are graded using the terms: Siberian, Uruguayan or Bahain; to represent high medium and low grade respectively, regardless of the actual source.
And of course people have already discussed the baseball threes...
I'm sure I could come up with lots more three related things, but I really need to go now. Why do I want to support three so much? Maybe I've been influenced by School House Rock and I really do believe
Three is a Magic Number.
