Paul wrote I Corinthians in Greek not Aramaic. I could be wrong, but I don't know of a single copy of I Corinthians in existence which is written in Aramaic. Just sayin'
Anything having to do with Bob Jones University is instantly suspect, but this revelation is especially so since no "Linguistic professors at Bob Jones University, long noted for its intellectual rigor," ... are named in this piece, and no related publications are cited.
Now, I am not a linguist by training, but I am a biochemist. I do not believe the term "junk" DNA is an appropriate term for code that scientists don't understand well enough themselves, or know the purpose for. But shoehorning as this guy does into DNA what he does while importing what he thinks is the credibility of a suspect institution that supposedly employs un-identified yet accomplished "linguists" seems to align well with other wild claims and specious research accomplished at this "W.I.T." place.
W.I.T is Wyoming Institute of Technology http://witscience.org/. Never heard of them? Neither have I. Supposedly they invented the space toilet used on the Space Station, invented the first computer virus, and rescued the world during the Y2K debacle.
How about a Dr. Richter DasMeerungeheuser? Never heard of him either. Looking for anything this guy has ever published outside this stupid thing here, but should you visit W.I.T. you are also subjected to body cavity searches both before and after you visit. Top secret, ya know. What -- you think I'm kidding? Read here. Visit WIT
An example of some of their current research is amusing.
I mean just think of the pressing human problem this little gem solves /s
The E-Condom
"When WIT started to tackle the reinvention of the condom in 2012, we recognized three key facts, reflected in our initial polling data: (1) most men hate wearing condoms, (2) men primarily wear condoms to avoid unwanted impregnations, and (3) men would gladly reuse condoms if they felt it was safe, to avoid both the added costs and the embarrassment of going to convenience stores and asking for them.
"It was these factors that led to our invention of The E-Condom. This small electronic device clips onto the scrotum with no pain or discomfort, and emits pulses of electricity directly into and through your balls which both disorient and slow the swim speed of your semen, rendering you 100% infertile while wearing the device, while allowing you to still enjoy powerful, pleasurable ejaculations.
"The E-Condom does not affect the transmission of sexually-transmitted diseases, but if you and your partner are both fully tested for STDs, why not wear a condom thats fully washable and reusable, has zero impact on feeling, and has no risk of breaking or clogging up the toilet?
"And while WIT waits for FDA approval, were still improving on our designs. A Bluetooth emitter could allow you to share your conquests on Facebook or Twitter during and after your sexual activity, while were also considering a tryptophan-emitter, which can make women drowsy after intercourse, allowing you to roll over and take a nap like you want to, rather than having to stay up for an hour talking about your feelings, or Katherine Heigl movies, or whatever other nonsense your significant other feels like boring you with."
I wonder if the Bob Jones University book store will be stocking these little pleasure buzzers any time soon.
Bottom line: Seriously, please do a little more research before you post crap like this.
FReegards!
Turned out to evidently be satire as my later post documented.
Sometimes I think to DUCKDUCK a topic or source but usually I just blithely rush along assuming things will sort themselves out as the dust settles.
Alternately, you are welcome to think of everything I post as a hideous bad joke and scroll speedily on by without reading or even scanning.
Re A Bluetooth emitter could allow you to share your conquests on Facebook or Twitter during and after your sexual activity:
Hahah! Sounds like a Jeff Epstein pedo porno product.
Thats just wrong on so many levels.
On the other hand, we still have the usual scientific proof of God—everything.
Thanks for this, Agamemnon.
Best laugh of the month!
