Michael(7 letters)/Mike(4),

You’re right and wrong about, “There’s nothing magical about the number 74”. **The combination of 7 & 4 invokes GOD(704) on another level.** Computer science tells us that _this universe behaves as a quantum computer where particles not only collide, they compute_. We now have another definition of **GOD: the _universal quantum computer_**. Where there’s a computer, there are programs, an initial(74) programmer, and ‘program #1’(74). GOD=7\_4 or FOD=6\_4 is not only a _fundamental constant_ present at the Big Bang and proliferating this universe since, it is program 1. _**"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was GOD." - John(47) 1:1**_. **GOD=7\_4 is a ‘password’ to a higher level of the _matrix_.**

If you were paying attention to _Weather Channel_ & CNN today, they were reporting that a military plane went inside Isaac and measured the winds at 74 mph (17:00 EDT), yet they withheld upgrading it to a hurri.(74=H8+U21+R18+R18+I9) You are correct that, “It is the point(74=P16+O15+I9+N14+T20) where an eye starts to develop.”

Numerology can be entertaining if you’re very bored, but it’s not proof of anything. It’s not even evidence of anything.

So what are those special attributes a storm has at 74 mph that it doesn’t have at 73 mph? Remember you’ve already got a meteorologist on the board disagreeing with you about that.

Doesn’t a lot of this numerology rely on peculiariarities the English language, which wasn’t spoken by the writers of the bible, and even today is only spoken by part of the world?

I’ll also point out that ancient Egypt didn’t have the foot as the unit of measurement, and that ancient Egyptian length measurements seem to have been based on fingers and palms.

Sitnam(6,76),

That joke is as old as _The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy_ - about 30 years-old. But the point(74) is is that there IS a real simple(74) answer: **GOD=7\_4 (or FOD=6\_4)**. 😛

The Tooth,

Ya… You mentioned “cubits and 40 days” in an attempted ‘shot’(47) at religion(74/89) - GOD takes note.

_Standard/Biblical cubits_(74=C3+U21+B2+I9+T20+S19) are 6 palms x 4 fingers & 17.76 inches. _Noah’s Ark_ and _Moses’ Courtyard of the Tabernacle of the Ark_ were both 50 cubits wide or 74 feet. Grand Master Masons Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and John(4,47) Hancock(7,40) encoded this with **7/4/1776** among other things!

The ancient Egyptians took the standard cubit and added a palm to fulfill _“As above, so below”_, thus producing the \*\*_Royal cubit_ of 7 palms x 4 fingers (google that). All of their sacred buildings used this 7\_4 basic measurement, i.e. Giza Pyramids, Temple at Luxor, etc. \*\*

The #40 is a recurring theme in the Bible. It first appears in _Genasis(74) 7:4, “For in 7 days, it will rain for 40 days and 40 nights”_. Quite a ‘coincidence’, huh?! :dubious:

I thought they used feet because pharaoh was god on Earth or something. While your reasoning has nothing to do with the facts, you’re actually correct this time: the Egyptians used cubits and did not feet as a unit of measurement.

EDIT: Gen_E_sis. Not Gen_A_sis. Please.

**Hurri.(74) Katrina(74) = H8+U21+R18+R18+I9=74, K11+A1+T20+R18+I9+N14+A1=74**. Hurri. Katrina reached 174 mph winds before coming on shore. ‘Coincidences’? \*\*There Are No Coincidences - there is synchronism \*\*(google that).

T.S. is the abbreviation for _tropical storm_. A _tropical depression_ becomes a tropical storm when it reaches sustained winds of 39 mph. **T.S.=39**. :eek:

Der Trihs,

That was rather a feeble attack. One definition of ‘spamming’ is _selling something_. I AM not selling anything. Now if you are making the point(74) that I AM spreading this information around the Internet to be exposed to many - like YOU - that had never heard of it before, ya, I AM guilty. Would you have preferred to have never heard of the **GOD=7\_4 Code** , etc.? Are you wanting to promote “Ignorance is bliss”? :smack:
