Barney is Satan!

[Wookiee]

The truth is finally known! Barney seems innocent and sweet but in fact he is Satan. It's all very simple:


1) Start with the given: CUTE PURPLE DINOSAUR

2) Change all U's to V's (which is proper Latin anyway): CVTE PVRPLE DINOSAVR

3) Extract all Roman Numerals: C V V L D I V

4) Convert into Arabic values: 100 5 5 50 500 1 5

5) Add all the numbers: 666

Thus, Barney is Satan!

I believe you're referring to Barney of the Flintstone cartoon series, although Barney is a human character. The 'cure purple dinosaur' (Fred Flintstone's pet dinosaur) is named Dino.

Incidently, CVVLDIV equals the sum of 664 - according to this Roman numeral converter:
