Even though I believe in G-d, what does proving the Torah exists have anything to do with proving G-d exists?

appellavitque lucem diem et tenebras noctem factumque est vespere et mane dies unus
dixit quoque Deus fiat firmamentum in medio aquarum et dividat aquas ab aquis
et fecit Deus firmamentum divisitque aquas quae erant sub firmamento ab his quae erant super firmamentum et factum est ita
vocavitque Deus firmamentum caelum et factum est vespere et mane dies secundus
dixit vero Deus congregentur aquae quae sub caelo sunt in locom unum et appareat arida factumque est ita
et vocavit Deus aridam terram congregationesque aquarum appellavit maria et vidit Deus quod esset bonum
et ait germinet terra herbam virentem et facientem semen et lignum pomiferum faciens fructum iuxta genus suum cuius semen in semet ipso sit super terram et factum est ita
et protulit terra herbam virentem et adferentem semen iuxta genus suum lignumque faciens fructum et habens unumquodque sementem secundum speciem suam et vidit Deus quod esset bonum
factumque est vespere et mane dies tertius
dixit autem Deus fiant luminaria in firmamento caeli ut dividant diem ac noctem et sint in signa et tempora et dies et annos
ut luceant in firmamento caeli et inluminent terram et factum est ita
fecitque Deus duo magna luminaria luminare maius ut praeesset diei et luminare minus ut praeesset nocti et stellas
et posuit eas in firmamento caeli ut lucerent super terram
et praeessent diei ac nocti et dividerent lucem ac tenebras et vidit Deus quod esset bonum
et factum est vespere et mane dies quartus
dixit etiam Deus producant aquae reptile animae viventis et volatile super terram sub firmamento caeli
creavitque Deus cete grandia et omnem animam viventem atque motabilem quam produxerant aquae in species suas et omne volatile secundum genus suum et vidit Deus quod esset bonum
benedixitque eis dicens crescite et multiplicamini et replete aquas maris avesque multiplicentur super terram

The bible code is just like the rapture...



neither existed before the 20th century...


polycarp, origin, apostles, martin luthar, AS Peake, Melito, Justin Martyr, the apologists, philip the evangalist (60s CE), the nicene council, Aristides, Philotheos Bryennios, Clement, Eusubius, didache, apocrapha, Diaterraron never mention the bible code, rapture, or anything like it. there is 1900 years of history that do not mention the bible code or rapture.

If you read the "Moby Dick Code" link (there's a bunch of stuff on that site) you realise that you could find such code in any large enough book.

I wonder what "proof" doc says there is for the Bible Code? Certainly none that any reputable scholars can see.

http://cs.anu.edu.au/~bdm/dilugim/StatSci/
http://cs.anu.edu.au/~bdm/dilugim/torah.html
http://www.talkreason.org/articles/Codpaper1.cfm
http://www.wopr.com/biblecodes/jewact.htm

Using the same "code" to get similar results in War and Peace:

http://cs.anu.edu.au/~bdm/dilugim/WNP/

I remember last year an article was published about a large group of prominent rabbis who came out and said the Torah code is, in fact, a bunch of hooey.

You may get a few with Moby Dick and War and Peace but the Bible has thousand on thousands.

It was the statistical odds and the cities test that had me hooked.


Don't be so quick to close your eyes to something that may be real.


I don't understand how some of you can be so quick to dissmiss without even checking to see if it is real???????

IIRC, the proportion of matches was pretty much equal. The fact that they found contradictory messages using the bible-code message also disproves it as an intentional code. Fact is that you could think of pretty much anything and find it in any substantial text using this message.
