VI = 6 in Roman numerals
S = 6 in Cyrillic numerals (Russian number system introduced by Peter the Great in the late 1700s replacing the old Hindu-Arabic system)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrillic_numerals
A (actually is this /\, but everyone can see the obvious resemblance) = 6 (This system called the Urnfield culture numerals was actually used in central Europe around 1200BC)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urnfield_culture_numerals
Note: I couldn't find very much on the Urnfield culture numerals outside of Wikipedia.
VI(6)S(6)A(6) = VISA
Rev 13:17 "And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."
Chew on that!
P.S. Thanks Jarod for sparking my interest long ago to research this out. What a testimony!
