Bible Code

[RBS13]

It's quite odd. the people who have 'discovered' this take the first 5 books of the old testiment and 'equally space' all of the letters. (this is all done in the original hebrew form) and they find all this crazy stuff.

Bible Codes
Other stuff

i just saw this on the history channel, and thought it would be cool to see what you all thought about it. i personally am a little skeptic about it, because of how it seems a lot of it could happen by chance and what not.

why am i not impressed that people are able to play word search with a text that's over 1000 pages long and make little messages
i could find "communism shall reign" in atlas shrugged if i wanted to

I try to follow and disprove alot of stuff like that. I do believe though that the Bible has some validity. The flood is a good example. Alot of the oldest world religions have similar stories. Also, Nostradomus is a good read.

using the same technique doomsday prophecies were found in moby dick, and the mike tyson ear biting incident was supposedly predicted by the microsoft end-user agreement.

i forget the names, but the person who came up with the bible code wrote a book about it, then when challenged by some academic or someone asked them to find a doomsday prophecy in moby dick. they stated that if they could do so, that they would drop the subject. instead they wrote another book about it.

i'll bring up something more specific if i can find the details.

wow, thats odd, people have found another way to extract nonsensical ramblings from the same book that has kept humanity in a haze for the past 2 millenia? wow, the times we live in

code finding in anceint books seems like a good waste of time. If your into that stuff.

its like a quiije board though. Its fun, but if you take it seriously you are a fucking retard.

Yay. Schollars are able to make 3 word sentences going diagonally and up and down in a 2000 page text. yay.

I tell you what... DOnt lose sleep over the matter. I definately wont. Major co-incidence, probably.

I've always looked at the bible code as pure stupidity, I can take any book look through it rearange the letters and make it seem like Sadam is actualy Jesus.

obviously, just look up Russia and someone would have said it.

I always take religious predictions very casually. I'll believe the ones that happen!
