54 planets found in habitable zone; [54+63=117]

This is a prime example of why I do not believe in this.

If 54 planets being found in the habitable zone is some kind of secret hidden message saying:

number of habitable planets (54) + God's name in English (63) = God the Father (117)

So, what happens when another planet is discovered?
And why would we think that Jesus put this particular message in the Bible code? What is so important about the number of habitable planets and their relation to “God the Father.” Why not pick all planets? Or all the planets in our solar system? Or the number of stars that have planets that we know of? Or the number of hairs on my head?

It's just so random. It's so easy to find meaning where there is none. I think it's been proven that “finding meaning where there is none is a common human trait.” We see faces where there aren't faces. We find patterns where there is only randomness. Something in our brain makes us do this, because it's often helpful. However, it's also harmful, if we start assigning order and meaning where there is actually no order.

Evolutionists explain it this way: The cave man who saw a bush rustling and believed there was a reason and a purpose behind it, either went and checked it out, or took some defensive action. The caveman who ignored the bush rustling, was eaten by a tiger.

I don't believe the above, but regardless, we, HUMANS, have for some reason developed the trait of assigning order and meaning where there is none. For the imaginary caveman, it became better to believe that something was there, rather than not believe that something was there.

I don't know why I'm still talking about this, but I do know that we see meaning where there is none.

If the number of planets was 55, i bet you could come up with something that fits pretty good, couldn't you?
What about 57? Yup.
And 58? Yes.
And if you can't, you can always change the arbitrary (63) YHVH for just about anything else.

Or, you could change the 117. It could be almost anything, and regardless of what number, I'm sure we could assign meaning to it.

For me, it is so obvious that you are just picking numbers and finding ways to see what you want to see. I just haven't seen you ever actually try to prove this Bible code idea. I don't think it can be proved simply or logically. Can it? It's like you need faith to believe in it, in order for it to work. (But people that believe in something, find a way to make their brains see that thing as working and real.)

Unique by design

Not according to the evidence.

Once agin I have to expose ED for his complete lack of knowledge, seriously.

God must want me to do this so you can learn. You wrote about 54 planets found in the habital zone but you were incorrect.

But here is the rub:

There are 48 planet candidates in their star's habitable zone. While this is a decrease from the 54 reported in February, the Kepler team has applied a stricter definition of what constitutes a habitable zone in the new catalog, to account for the warming effect of atmospheres, which would move the zone away from the star, out to longer orbital periods.

You should have looked for the most current information but instead you blew your horn without being certain of the facts

So No 54 Habitable planets yet and the 4 letters of God's name is YHWH according to classic original Hebrew.

2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

I don't even have any problem with it as long as someone is just claiming it as interesting and not as proof of anything. I mean if Jesus=888 and someone says that is really special and incredible and then someone says that's really interesting because Muhammad=888 as well and then you mock and belittle that aspect it shows the selectivity and destroys all objective study of it.

You can't say just because someone is not your religion or religious that there information is wrong or bad based upon that. When we count our change at the store it will be the same math for all of us.

All I ever asked ED to do was to be honest

The main problem is you cannot just alter someones name his name is Muhammad not Maometis.

Most of us may not have heard the word Maometis derived from Mahomet.

Muhammad is the name of the prophet t8 not Mahomet this was just propoganda again.

…………………..
We have to agree with the Orientalist W Montgomery Watt when he says:

Of all the world's greatest men none has been so much maligned as Muhammad. It is easy to see how this has come about. For centuries Islam was the great enemy of Christendom, for Christendom was in direct contact with no other organized states comparable in power to the Muslims. The Byzantine empire, after losing its provinces in Syria and Egypt, was being attacked in Asia Minor, while Western Europe was threatened through Spain and Sicily. Even before the Crusades focused attention on the expulsion of the Sarcens from the Holy Land, medieval war-propaganda, free from the restraints of factuality was building up a conception of 'the great enemy'. At one point Muhammad was transformed into Mahound, the prince of darkness. By the eleventh century the idea about Islam and Muslims current in the crusading armies were such travesties that they had a bad effect on morale. The crusaders had been led to expect the worst of their enemies, and, when they found many chivalrous knights among them, they were filled with distrust for the authorities of their own religion.[2]

Now that I have informed you of the only actual valid spelling here is Muhammad

Now show me what calculator gave you 888 for Jesus and it will do the same for Muhammad

By the way why would you be using greek numbers for Jesus?

The point is david, scripture encourages us to work out the number of the beast. It says that those who have understanding can work out the number of the beast. Note the words, “those with understanding”.

Thus there is something to this obviously, so shunning all evidence to this is not what the Book of Revelation is telling us to do is it.

Point in hand. If someone told you something and you checked it out and it was indeed the case, even if the chance was 1/2 it was still right. But you could always make the case that you had a 50% chance therefore you could have been wrong too. Except that it is scripture that is telling us and I thought that you had a respect for scripture, plus the chances are much smaller than 50%, so it only lends more to the credibility of what that scripture is telling us.
