Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia (Posted on 2015-09-22)

Is hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia (irrational fear of the number 666, or the "Number of the Beast")the longest word in the list of phobias?

There is nothing irrational about fearing "the number of the beast", and by extension Satanical manifestations. I have just consulted several dictionaries for hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia and the word "irrational" is not in any of them. Clearly this is a gratuitous opinion, which in no way affects the solution to this puzzle.

As the song says: "I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell. I know right now it's hard to tell."

p.s. -- Just kidding. No retort necessary. Honk if you agree.
