- Have you ever noticed the way any sort of predictive
art/science is consistently ridiculed by the mainstream, but meanwhile
seem to be used on an invariably consistent level by those in power?

- A long time ago, J.P. Morgan said, "Millionaires
don't use Astrologers, billionaires do." And, we've all heard about
Nancy Reagan's penchant for astrologers, you can read a People Magazine
story title 'The President's Astrologers' from 1988 about that here:

- Currently, the latest thing our leadership seems to be
dabbling in is Bible Codes. To give credit where credit is due, I originally
saw this story on Godlike Productions:

- On the eve of war, military brass listened intently as
Michael Drosnin expounded the Bible code
-
- The gathering, which took place Feb. 21, was convened
by Paul Wolfowitz, the hawkish U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defence, and attended
by 10 top military intelligence officials, including Vice Admiral Lowell
"Jake" Jacoby, director of the massive Defense Intelligence Agency,
and Wolfowitz's deputy, Linton Wells, who is in charge of the Pentagon's
nerve centre, known as 3CI (Command, Control, Communications)...

- Here's an excerpt:
-
- On the eve of war, the military brass listened intently
for a full hour as Michael Drosnin expounded on his two brisk-selling volumes
on the Bible code.
-
- Drosnin argues the Hebrew Torah -- the first five books
of the Old Testament -- were intentionally encrypted, by a higher power,
with prophetic warnings that have accurately predicted the Great Depression,
the Second World War, the Kennedy assassinations, the moon landing, Watergate,
and 9/11 -- and foretell the fall of Saddam Hussein and the precise location
of bin Laden.
-
- The Americans "took it very seriously," Drosnin
says. "They're practical people and I wanted to give them something
of practical use."
-
- As a result of the meeting, Drosnin says U.S. and Israeli
intelligence forces are hot on bin Laden's trail in that very place the
Bible mentions, "right as we speak." Of course, he would not
divulge where that place is.
-
- As for Saddam Hussein, the Bible's embedded code ponders,
"Who is destroyed?" and then, in the same matrix, answers, "Hussein,"
with the following number crossing his name: 5763, the Jewish year that
corresponds to 2003. "That foretells the outcome of this conflict,"
Drosnin says confidently. "It might be obvious now, but it wasn't
when I told them."
-
- If you're really interested in all this, you also might
want to take a look at 'Isaac Newton, Bible Code Pioneer?':
-
- http://www.biblecodedigest.com/page.php/74
-
- To Newton,s mind it was clear that some prophecies would
not be understood until the end of history. This is an excerpt from his
book on Daniel and Revelation:
-
- This prophecy is called the Revelation, with respect
to the Scripture of Truth, which Daniel was commanded to shut up and seal,
till the time of the end. Daniel sealed it until the time of the end, and
until that time comes, the Lamb is opening the seals: and afterward the
two Witnesses prophesy out of it a long time in sackcloth, before they
ascend up to heaven in a cloud. All of which is as much as to say, that
the prophecies of Daniel and John should not be understood till the time
of the end: but that some should prophesy out of it in an afflicted and
mournful state for a long time, and that but darkly, so as to convert but
few. But in the very end, the Prophecy should be so far interpreted so
as to convince many. Then saith Daniel, many shall run to and fro, and
knowledge shall be increased.
-
- For the Gospel must first be preached in all nations
before the great tribulation, and end of the world. The palm-bearing multitude,
which came out of this great tribulation, cannot be innumerable out of
all nations unless they be made so by the preaching of the Gospel before
it comes. There must be a stone cut of the mountain without hands, before
it can fall on the toes of the Image, and become a great mountain and fill
the earth. An Angel must fly through the midst of heaven with the everlasting
Gospel to preach to all nations, before Babylon falls, and the Son of man
reaps his harvest. The two prophets must ascend up to heaven in a cloud,
before the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of Christ.
-
- 'Tis therefore a part of this Prophecy, that it should
not be understood before the last age of the world; and therefore it makes
for the credit of the Prophecy, that it is not yet understood. But if the
last age, the age of opening these things, be now approaching, as by the
great success of late Interpreters it seems to be, we have more encouragement
than ever to look into these things.
-
- If the general preaching of the Gospel be approaching,
it is for us and our posterity that these words mainly belong: In the time
of the end the wise shall understand, but none of the wicked shall understand.
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this Prophecy,
and keep those things that are written therein (Daniel 12:4,10)
-
- I dunno -- guess astrology and bible codes are bullsh*t
when us regular folks use them, but worth spending taxpayer dollars on
if the big shots think they might give them an edge somehow?
