There is no question that numerology plays a large part in religion. Christians may be late to the game, but Jewish and Islamic scholars have been at the game for a while. Some passages in the OT are obvious numerical constructions and references to numbers are frequent. It is another level of communication. Proof of something? Nah.

Analysis of God's underlying numerical factors, facts, clues, 'foollishness,' fun etc. is one thing.

NUMEROLOGY in the classic sense of investing or imputing to the numberical stuff magical, protective, omenish, supernatural, manipulatible, occultic etc. dynamics is wholesale against God's Scriptural injunctions to have nothing to do with. THAT is NOT AT ALL what this thread and initial post are about.
