Bible scholars claim to have fixed the bug in their decoding that caused their earlier mistaken predictions. As a result they have so many different scriptural calculations leading to the same month for the UN bomb, that "coincidence is no longer an option" for their research team.

The Muslim nuts run the asylum.
In keeping with the FR policy of not advocating violence, I hope the UN is not hit with a nuclear bomb. However, I would be in favor of global warming melting the UN with all its attendant communists inside.
Agreed.
In discussing the "war" with the Islamofacist world with my 12 Yr old son, I am constantly telling him to take a step back and look at the spiritual side of all the things going on in this planet. How each and every political decision that is made could possibly fit in the plans of an/the anti-christ or at the very least, a one world government leader.
My reason for doing so is that time is short and our jobs need to be focused on the Great Commission. We can do nothing about pre-ordained movements of God to bring about the New Jerusalem. All we can do is what He told us to do.
And learn how to pull the trigger.
If followed it would settle that. But if not followed, amongst other disobediences, Deuteronomy 28:15-68 comes in to play.
I'd settle for just closing the damn thing down and shipping those feckless idiots to a new UN building in Antartica.
Leave it to the Internet MSM to call Bible code theorists "Bible scholars."
Every once in a while I catch on the History Channel, Discovery Channel, or some other "education channel" their take on Bible prophesy or events of the Judeo-Christian history. They always have that one "expert" that looks like Spocks father giving his blantantly wrong opinion. I can't remember if he's from Harvard or Notre Dame or somewhere else.
But it always amazes me that they never interview real Biblical scholers like Erwin Lutzer, David Cook, John MacArthur Jr., Charles Stanley, Chuck Swindol, or at least anyone in the theology dept. at Dallas Theological Seminary.
Am torn by the doc at:
I find it a very difficult to read mass of text that is most unappealing and bothersome to even give a minute to. So,I have not waded through the whole doc.
IF ANYONE HAS A GOOD BRIEF FEW LINE SUMMARY OF EACH OF THE SPECIFIC BIBLE CODES SUPPOSEDLY DERIVED, I'D BE HAPPY TO CONSIDER THEM.
The calculations SOUND impressive.
But until I can analyze the codes in terms of length and how they were derived, then I will have to consider them, at least potentially, as totally worthless.
There are LOTS of Bible Code researchers who have not the mentality nor training to soundly search for and evaluate codes with the rigor and solid criteria of the current state of the art and science that is the Bible Codes research phenomenon. And a lot of their pontifications are utterly worthless.
That doesn't touch the validity of AUTHENTIC CODES at all. But it sure muddies the water.
No numerology is involved.
Consulting a dictionary would have made that abundantly clear if one knew anything about the authentic codes at all.

EXCELLENT.
I believe every believing parent should be doing accordingly.

Antartica is a bit close. Jupiter might do.
But much more fitting would be URANUS.

Some are.
The scholars at BIBLECODEDIGEST.COM
are exceedingly well qualified and well published scholars.
And, some of their codes research is solidly published in peer reviewed professional journals.
While their detractors in the profession have been caught in dishonest skullduggery and very schlocky research indeed.
Bias in quadruplicate does not automatically equal scholarship.
Some on your list are objective and can let The Bible Speak whatever The Bible will speak. Others are so blinded by their own vain imaginings and private interpretations that there's little hope in them saying anything Biblically accurate or useful on at least SOME topics such as END TIMES PROPHECIES and PENTECOSTALISM etc.
We'll see whether a comet or asteroid comes careening to Earth in 2012. Maybe also the original subject, here.
It just strikes me that you could find alot of false positive "patterns" in an alphabet without vowels.
Actually, the Hebrew scholars insist that's not true. And, with the BibleCodeDigest.com folks and their connected scholars and sites around the world, that has proven the case. There are relatively few options for possible meanings and the BCD folks always or virtually always list all the plausible ones--and if and why they think one is more plausible than the rest.
I'm not the Hebrew scholar. But that issue has been quite sufficiently laid to rest for me by several folks who are.
Yes, that's true.
Romans, chapter one, tells us that those who abandon knowledge of God are given over to degenerate thinking.
Fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. (Prov 1:7)
To fear the Lord is to hate evil. (Prov 8:13)
I agree! And on or before the 23rd of Sept? I believe that's Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. So aren't these guys the equivalent of the tabloids that come out before the end of the calendar year, with their New Year's doomsday 'predictions'? Hmmmmm...
You must have made a calculations error - my secret message came out as:
