What do you think of the Bible Code?

[Rat Faced]

Other scientists have demonstrated how crap the Bible code is, by getting similar 'prophesies' out of Moby Dick....

In the very same Horizon documentary.

I dont watch "Horizon"





Was proll Panarama or Trevor McDonald or sth i seen it on

I think its all a load of bollocks.

If you have any reasonable length of text you are going to be able to see pretty much anything you like. I would imagine that if you try hard enough, you could find the Moby Dick story in a copy of the Bible.


mis Interpretation of religious and quasi religious text has a lot to answer for.

So what are your thoughts/views about this? Do you believe in it?

Unfortunately, I didn't see the documentary either, but my gut feeling is it's a load of cobblers.

I read the bible once. The King James version, naturellement...

It was very long and boring.. All the best stories are in Genesis, it all goes a bit downhill from there, until you reach the New Testament... then after the Gospels , it gets a bit boring until you get to Revelation, but to be honest it's a bit of an anticlimax, and you're glad when it's all over.

Typical for a critic.... Gives the story a bad rating and the consumers still go crazy over it

Not bad for a bit of overated non fiction huh?

As for the Bible code... I sure hope it isn't true.

Edited to make it say what I meant

Hoi! Barbie!

Use spoiler tags - some of us haven't read it yet

@Barbarossa:

Yeah that's what the Bible is like..
Extremely boring apart from some of the wars, and the creation of stuff.....

And the contradictions...

God punishes someone for refusing to put his brothers wife in the club, after saying we arent allowed to touch them

...he/she/it should make his/her/its bloody mind up what the bloody rules are then

I think you'll find it says neighbour's wife, nothing about brother's or even that bloke down the street's.

And if he keeps having to go away on business trips that's hardly my fault.
