They altered the rainbow for their flag, so is it a counterfeit rainbow?

The rainbow is made of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, from lowest to highest frequency.

Their flag has six colors and doesn’t have either blue, I think, or maybe it’s indigo that’s missing.

Not sure why that is, but I wonder if that’s intentional or not, and if it is, why?

What might be represented by that color, I wonder, that makes them not include it?

God’s rainbow has 7 colors and 7 is one of His often used numbers, as with the 7 days of creation, for example.

Their artificial, imitation rainbow has 6 colors and 6 could be significant as man was created on the 6th day and 6 is said to be the number of man.

Once God is removed and replaced with our image or likeness, as is true with their replacing God’s 7 colored rainbow with their 6 colored rainbow for example, we can be as willfully self-determined as any prodigal son and daughter wants to be.

I’ve read that “Satan apes God” and it’s easy to see how he gets humans to do the same as he does if he can.

For example, they ape God’s rainbow above with their rainbow flag waving in the wind.

Another example is how their versions of marriage ape God’s design for marriage.

Our free will truth is: we’re all sick sinners and Satan knows he can reel any of us in … if … he can catch us on a hook baited with one or more of our hungers, wants or desires.

And, he can, because Satan apes God as a fisher of men, too.

Bad sex is good bait and Satan’s put a lot of chum in the water these days … yikes.

The 7 color rainbow traces back to Isaac Newton. He was the first to study the spectrum from white light. From what I’ve read, he may have started with 6 colors but thought there should be 7 colors because of 7 planets then known, 7 days in the week, 7 musical notes, etc. The sources I’ve read don’t mention him acknowledging 7 being God’s number. I don’t know if that’s suppressed or not. Newton went off the deep end towards the end of his life, but in the middle I think he was more God-honoring.

In the history of colors, for a long time orange didn’t have it’s own name but was yellow-red. This is why the color is named after the fruit. Many primitive societies had no word for blue. I like the 7-color rainbow, although the word for indigo would be better if it were one of two syllables.
