I’ve heard a lot of discussion lately about the faux Nostrodamus predictions, but not seen anything on what the Bible Code has to say about it?
I’ve read part of the book before, but I’m not familiar with it.
Any experts?
Oh, I’m sure we can count on someone to “find” a “reference” to this in the “Bible Code” now. A little advance notice from some of these alleged prophets and seers and psychics would be kind of nice, though. Quit telling us stuff we already know, guys.
I am certain that it does, as the “Bible Code” hucksters are as unscrupulous as any Nostradamus interpreter. Give them a few days to come up with something that sounds good.
Actually, I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss the Bible codes. In the book of Daniel, a great work of prophesy in it’s own right, if we start with the third chapter and take the 12th, 38th, 42nd, 58th, 73rd, 82nd, 91st and 103rd letter, it spells out bin Laden.
Coincidence???
As far as prophecy/prediction sources go, this book is actually frightfully accurate. That’s why I’m wondering if there’s any relevance with the current events.
Cites?
So what’s going to happen next?
yep.
I’m sure if you looked at “The Moby Dick Code” or “The War and Peace Code” or even “The Penthouse Letters 1980-2000 Code” you’d find similar “prophecies”.
Until the predictions are made before anything happens, it’s nothing more than skip coding until you find what you’re looking for.
…so frightfully accurate, in fact, that cryptographers were just too terrified to, you know, figure out that this was going to happen ahead of time.
When I was in fifth grade, and I didn’t want my teacher to read the notes that we passed around in class, I just wrote them in matrices of Hebrew characters. Ms. Chokesondick got knock-kneed just seeing them thangs.
Gawd, I never thought it was a good joke, but at least I thought it was recognizable.
Too much time with the great Randini has made your humor disappear.
Here it is, friends:
Now if only it could tell me where I left my copy of Marquee Moon…
I remain irascible yet self-consciously hip,

I guess that this is strong proof that, simply by changing the order of the letters in the Bibel, one can spell out anything at all! 
What’s even more amazing than the Bible Code is the Alphabet Code:
This code reveals everything! By selecting the second letter, the ninth letter, the fourteenth letter, the twelth letter, the first letter, the fourth letter, the fifth letter, the fourteenth letter again, the second letter again, the fifteenth letter, the thirteenth letter, the second letter for a third time, the twenty-third letter, the twentieth letter, and the third letter of this amazing matrix, it clearly spells out
The odds of this pattern happening by coincidence alone are 1,677,259,342,285,725,925,376 to 1!!!
Further prophecies will be left as an exercise for the reader.
[hijack]MEBuckner, and everyone else:
Before today, I have never heard anyone talking about a Bible code. Then, today, that “innocence” was shattered. In my speech class, one of the students phrases during his introductory speech was “oh yea, and if you don´t think the Bible has any relevance in today´s world, think again, because it tells about the destruction of WTC”. Maybe not in the exact words, but something very close. I have never heard a human being express this way…I was shocked.
A sign of things to come, probably.[/hijack]
KarlGrenze,
I just found in the Bible matrix that you were going to post that.
What’s extra great about that news story, is I noticed they
found a lot of stuff in Isaiah.
Isaiah isn’t part of what they’re supposed to be searching,
according to the Drosnin book.
They couldn’t find anything in the Pentateuch, so they just
kept going!
oops. Sorry Ennui!
Guess I’ve heard too many freaks make claims like yours and seriously believe them.
