So, you’re wondering if the Bible Codes predicted the tragedy at Virginia Tech

I’m going to have to say: not a chance. At least if you expect predictions to be useful and somewhat specific. If you accept that some Bible Code — to be found after the fact — said something like “shooting… death… school” as an acceptable prediction, then yes, I’m sure the Bible Code “predicted” what happened yesterday.

I wrote this post because people are searching for things like “virginia tech bible code” and finding my site, which offers no predictions, but seems to be the best spot on the web for combining “virginia tech” and “bible code,” which I think means that no one who studies the code managed to use it it in any way to predict anything.
