Hold on. You have to slow down. You're losing it. You have to take a breath. Listen to yourself. You're connecting a computer bug I had with a computer bug you might have had and some religious hogwash. You want to find the number 216 in the world' date=' you will be able to find it everywhere. 216 steps from a mere street corner to your front door. 216 seconds you spend riding on the elevator. When your mind becomes obsessed with anything, you will filter everything else out and find that thing everywhere. But Max, as soon as you disregard scientific rigor you're no longer a mathematician, you're a numerologist.[/Quote']

Why not both?

The funny thing about these Bible code folks is that they never suggest why on earth anyone would want to put a code into the Bible. Back in the days when the Torah was being written, the people writting it were almost alone in being able to read and write, so they wouldn't have needed to worry about people stealing thier prophecies even if they stated them explicitly.

I just find it funny that the bible code 1 was written before 9/11 and failed to predict it while the bible code 2 written after 9/11 did predict it...whats the go there?

Well, Bible code 2 didn't technically predict anything. It's a postdiction.

If you're talking about this:

It's a great example of bad math. And here's an equally great deconstruction:

When applying a similar methodology, stunning predictions were found to be hidden in the Microsoft Access Developer's Toolkit version 2.0 End User License Agreement! :eek:

 

Among other things: OJ DID IT!

no no... you need your faith checked.

 

its not about hiding prophecies, its about gods hidden messages to us. clearly the bible was written by god, who else could have predicted all this?
