Nonsense is not “rational.”

I couldn't agree more...which is why I don't give credance to absurdities such as the Bible Code.

The codes are undeniable (the real ones).

They are in the text, and were found by computer search.

After the book was published, charletans tried to foist false examples fron other texts to ‘disprove’ them but all of the examples of more than four characters were proven to have been achieved by altering the subject texts.

You, being of similar mind, got bit. Go suck your wounds.

Good article. Still if we were to believe in the existence of the ‘Bible Codes’, then we must take another step and assume that placing such codes in the text would have to affect the contents of the text, that is its veracity. That is to say, in order to make the Codes work, God, or whoever wrote the Bible, had to adjust the content, change it to fit the puzzle and thus make it less reliable as it would have been as a straight narration. Have the cake or eat it, dear believers in superstitions of this nature.
