As a history major I am often disappointed by the schlock that "History" Channel puts on the air.

Just out of curiosity, is this the same code that is so amazing it also finds "prophesies" in War and Peace, and other large books??? :)

Hidden Bible "codes" are an interesting topic.

First of all, the original language (hebrew, in most cases) contains no vowels. And, the "codes" rely exclusively on the statistical position of a very small number of variables (letters).

Thus, is it possible to find "hidden codes" in many texts and books. I did this myself a few months ago, and discovered the "Da Vinci Code" predicted that I am Gemini, and live in New York.

Not to belittle this, but I`m not sure there is anything mystical about it. You can find messages in any text if you spend sufficient time lookin for them.

^ Hey, if I live around Newton`s time, I would have studied Bible codes too.

Are you kidding? A brilliant mathematical mind, deeply curious about the basic mysteries of life and the universe, superb understanding of probabilities and statistics. Roman Catholic patronage. I don`t blame him at all.

Doesn`t mean he wasn`t wrong in retrospect. Science is all about trial and error.

It a commonly know fact among atheists, alifeva, but we don`t hold it against him ;)

Edit: Imagine how much more he could have discovered if he hadn`t spent all that time on Bible codes !

^ No No NYC. Sir Issac Newton was devoutly religious. Yes thats right, father of physics. Leader of the science realm. Perfect example of equilibrium. Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, I rest my case.

This your first post, alifeva1?

Might be interesting to see an uploaded history of the Bible, Council of Carthage, apocrypha, the process of selection for the books of the Bible.

I don`t see anything in NYC`s posts that hasn`t already been stated by him and others before... maybe you should read it a time or two more.

LeighCedar dont be silly. I won the war between good and evil on this website. I proved that scientists, college professors, mathematicians, all read the bible! Sir Issac NEWTON BABY! WOOT. I gotta go smoke a cigarette, I normally don`t smoke but I must relish my victory. Yes my first post NYC and I made it to the front page. Indeed a sign from the heavens that I must lead my people into battle against the atheists in the future.

This BBC documentary (linked below) does a far more in depth and intellectual treatment of the topic than alifeva`s here (as one would expect) and also quite adequately dispels the fairy-tale notion of a "Bible Code".

NYC: Yes, this is the same code that you can use to find similar "prophesies" in Dan Brown. Shall we pray to him?

Hebrew is my first language. And, yes, it is what is known as a "consonantal" language; vowels are essentially used to provide things like grammatical details like tense and gender which can often be easily inferred from context, so are often left out of text, which becomes a kind of shorthand.

The Bible was an oral tradition for centuries, like Homer or Beowulf, and when it was finally written down it was written basically in shorthand, in one continuous line, no spaces between the words and with no vowels.

While it is true that meaning can often be accurately inferred, you can see as how there would be much room for guesswork and (mis-)interpretation, as well as for reading into the text, looking for "hidden codes".

As such, it is a supreme "act of faith", indeed, to take any of that literally. Bible codes are an wonderful example of "what the seeker seeks, the prover proves".

You could hunt for these codes, clues and prophesies *endlessly* and everywhere (meanwhile, children are starving, wars are raging, the poor are getting poorer, the rich getting richer, church coffers are swelling, etc. etc. etc.)

Marx said that religion was the opiate of the masses. Yep, and like opium, it doesn`t take much before you OD and die.
