Abstract
A number of new proofs of the Kochen-Specker theorem are given based on the observables of the three-qubit Pauli group. Each proof is presented in the form of a diagram from which it is obvious by inspection. Each of our observable-based proofs leads to a system of projectors and bases that generally yields a large number of "parity proofs" of the Kochen-Specker theorem. Some examples of such proofs are given and some of their applications are discussed.
