Humor (Just for fun!)

red dot "Assassinations Foretold in Moby Dick!" Have you heard of the book, The Bible Code? Someone used similar principles to do computer "analysis" of the classic about the white whale! Although I've put this under "humor" this site seriously demonstrates the folly of treating the Bible as a kind of "magical" book rather than ancient literature written to people in the ancient world. (Unless of course you believe the author of Moby Dick was secretly revealing the 20th century to us!)
