There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.

Silly question[edit]

Silly question, but does anyone know where to get an ELS program from? I was wondering if some Conservapedia (or even RW or WP) articles were long enough to search through and have a reasonable chance of getting a positive. Scarlet A.pngd hominem 09:21, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Reverse engineering the code[edit]

  • Apply program.
  • Get phrase
  • Take words in which said letters are found.
  • This message is significant.
  • If not, repeat until bored/something relevant surfaces/your significant other divorces you or tells you to do your chores.

Alternatively take pre-prepared phrase and proceed as from point 2. 82.44.143.26 (talk) 15:36, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Hidden word[edit]

As 'Bible' normally has an initial capital where is the initial 'B' of the codeword in the text?

The 'code' could only have been created #once the texts were actually written down# rather than recited from memory down the generations - and it is 'slightly fiddly' to make the 'visible text' read coherently around all the codes inserted. And the question is #why be so convoluted#? (What was the acrostic-sentences newspaper leader?) 82.44.143.26 (talk) 14:32, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Would probably be this if anyone is interested (but there may well be more). Anna Livia (talk) 10:29, 9 June 2018 (UTC)

The Greeks had a word for it[edit]

Woo squared[edit]

From an 'only through Christ will you be saved/by their words rather than their deeds shall God decide)' type - there are many Bible Code predictions but some of them have been thwarted/avoided. Anna Livia (talk) 11:31, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

What happens[edit]

… if the Bible Code 'system' is applied to the Voynich Manuscript? Anna Livia (talk) 22:13, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Well the manuscript isn't written in a language we have deciphered, it will become even more gibberish. so nothing. 149.19.54.56 (talk) 16:08, 9 March 2022 (UTC)Bumpf
That was partly the point (in both directions). Anna Livia (talk) 20:14, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

KJV?[edit]

Surely this particular brand of bollocks can be applied to the KJV which, as any fule kno, is written in English Just Like Jesus Spoke? Mr Larrington (talk) 18:17, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
