The Catholic Church's attitude to human life is summed up in paragraph 2258 of the Catechism: "Human life is sacred because from its beginning it involves the creative action of God and it remains for ever in a special relationship with the Creator, who is its sole end. God alone is the Lord of life from its beginning until its end: no one can under any circumstance claim for himself the right directly to destroy an innocent human being."

The least power of 2 to have 6 consecutive digits "6" in its decimal representation is 2^2269. (No I haven't checked this myself - the number has 684 digits! It comes from Prime Curios.)
