5.0 out of 5 stars Is there irrefutable proof? ABSOLUTELY!, Dec 30 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Original Code in the Bible: Using Science and Mathematics to Reveal God's Fingerprints (Hardcover)
Mr. Washburn (the author of the book)has two mathemtical proofs that Theomatics is scientifically correct. He uses the scientific method in his book Theomatics 2 to prove that Theomatics is not a hoax. In fact he has made a scientific document called Theomatics and the Scientific Method that proves through the scientific method,as in Theomatics 2, that Theomatics is not a hoax, BUT, this time THE PROOF IS FAR MORE DETAILED AND EXTENSIVE. The latter is sold only (as far as I know) through his website. The proof is irrefutable! The critics that are bent on bringing Theomatics down are either emotionally upset because they have to restructure their ideological system because they have only relied on the surface text of the Bible, stupid or deceptive. The Fundamentalists fall under the first two categories while educated people fall under the last category. Their minds have been conditioned in the universities to denounce Christianity. Scientists and university professors have a deep rooted hatred for Christianity. Some of them are justified because the bible codes are recent discoveries, they are only familiar with faith Christianity, this form of Christianity leaves no room for logic. While other educated people hate Christianity because the Bible clashes with their emotions, while yet other educated people will not profess Christianity because they are afraid of being exiled from the realm of scholarship. These are the reasons why Theomatics is not received in the world of scholardom.
Also, just for your information read up on a person named George M. Lamsa (you can buy his books on amazon.com). I think, and many others that have come across his work do also, that he has resurrected very much of first century Christianity.
Happy trails to you.

1.0 out of 5 stars ???, July 11 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Original Code in the Bible: Using Science and Mathematics to Reveal God's Fingerprints (Hardcover)
A few problems I see:

1. It needs to be proven that different people would pick the same word groupings and phrase/clause limits that Washburn has done (e.g., on his Web page with examples, he explains which relevant or distinct words he limits his target phrases to, even admitting to omitting words as not essential to the thought). Otherwise, Washburn could be adding or subtracting preceding or following words to achieve the numbers he seeks.

2. The Greek New Testament text is replete with textual variants. No modern Greek New Testament text, or even any book within the text, is based on the reading of a single manuscript. Rather, the text is a patchwork of readings from the thousands of extant manuscripts, and is created by textual critics who have been trained how to determine what is probably the best reading when manuscripts differ. Get a copy of the Nestle-Aland 27th edition (the latest critical text of the Greek New Testament) and you'll see how frequently the manuscripts vary. Sure, it's often only a word or two, or a letter or two, but since Washburn's thesis is dependent upon calculating the values of the letters that are in the text, a change in even single letters will often alter his results. I know he explains in his first THEOMATICS book how he dealt with this, but it doesn't solve the problem. NO ONE can precisely say what the original manuscripts said on a word-by-word basis.

3. It needs to be proven that other pieces of literature do not show this same apparent numerical consistency between related topics. E.g., if one could show that phrases having to do with velociraptors in JURASSIC PARK exhibit a common mathematical relationship (e.g., by assigning numerical values to the letters of the English alphabet to make it correspond to how the Hebrew and Greek alphabets use letters for numbers), that would likely nullify Washburn's hypothesis.

NOWHERE in his books, to my knowledge, does Washburn provide answers to the above -- i.e., show that these objections to or questions about his theory can conclusively be demonstrated to be invalid, and that his theory stands the test of examination and comparison.

5.0 out of 5 stars The God of Creation is a God of Numbers, Jun 27 2001
By 
"freegrace2" (Marlton, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Original Code in the Bible: Using Science and Mathematics to Reveal God's Fingerprints (Hardcover)
The God that sent His Son the Lord Jesus Christ to die for the sins of His people on a cross of shame is indeed the God of the Bible, and the Author of it.

This book is "must reading" for all those who want to know the God of creation better!

I still do not know how theomatics works in the Scriptures, but this book is very clear, it is there, and it will not "go away"...!
