Author Michael Drosnin believes he has information that's vital to national — indeed global —security, and he is concerned that President Obama is being shielded from these important revelations by senior members of the administration. Drosnin is so concerned, in fact, that he took out a full page ad on Dec. 8 in the New York Times today (page A27) that asks, "Why Won't the White House Let the President Read This Letter?" Under that is a photograph of Osama bin Laden, with a large caption that reads, "Bin Laden May Already Have Nuclear Weapons." How did Drosnin get this information? He read it (along with the weapons' location) in the Bible: it was "first stated by a code in the Bible as the hide-out for nuclear weapons... The code clearly states that Al Qaeda has nuclear weapons there." [Did UFOs Disarm Nuclear Weapons?] Hundreds of millions of Christians who have read the Bible may be scratching their heads, wondering how they missed the "clear" references to nuclear weapons and Al Qaeda among the gospels and parables. The answer is that Drosnin, author of the best-selling "Bible Code" book series, claims he can see things in the Bible that no one else can. Drosnin believes that the Bible contains codes (hidden in numbers and letters) accurately predicting world events. Drosnin's critics have demonstrated that the meanings he found were simply the result of selectively choosing data sets from a vast sea of random letters within the Bible text. For example, physicist David E. Thomas showed that the patterns Drosnin and others found were the result of "data mining." If you run a computer program through enough massive pieces of text (whether the Bible or "War and Peace" or "Moby-Dick"), looking for enough patterns (every 10th letter, every 12th letter, etc.), it will eventually spit out some words and jumbled sentences that could be interpreted to make sense. It's the sort of thing that the veritable room full of monkeys with typewriters would be able to generate, given enough time. Thomas demonstrated this for LiveScience by downloading an excerpt from Drosnin's new book from his website. "It was 3,681 characters in length after stripping spaces and punctuation, or just over one percent of the Torah's length," Thomas explained. "I ran two quick algorithms, and even though the chapter is short, it teems with amazing 'Bible Codes'. For example I found the words 'vain' and 'hoax' in one analysis, and the word 'megalomania' in another. Do these codes mean anything? Of course not! They just serve to show how easily hidden messages can be produced in any text, not just the Torah." [Image of "megalomania" code] Drosnin does not explain why God would bother to hide messages in Biblical text that can only be revealed (by him) through complex computer algorithms scouring millions of letters. If the deity felt the message was important, presumably it could have been presented clearly and plainly. The most likely answer to Drosnin's question is that President Obama is not interested in responding to claims based on numerology, scripture, or fortunetelling — nor in helping Drosnin promote his new book. - Top 10 Unexplained Phenomena - Bible Possibly Written Centuries Earlier, Discovery Suggests - The Wildest Conspiracy Theories Benjamin Radford is managing editor of Skeptical Inquirer science magazine and author of Scientific Paranormal Investigation: How to Solve Unexplained Mysteries.

Biblija skriva tajna upozorenja o nuklearnom ratu Autor Michael Drosnin vjeruje kako posjeduje informacije od ključne važnosti za globalnu sigurnost Drosnin je toliko zabrinut da je prije nekoliko dana čak dobio cijelu stranicu u New York Timesu s naslovom "Zašto Bijela kuća ne dopušta predsjedniku da pročita ovo pismo?" Ispod naslova je slika s Bin Ladenom te jasnom porukom: "Bin Laden vjerojatno već posjeduje nuklearno oružje." Kako je Drosnin došao do ovih informacija? Pročitao ih je (zajedno s lokacijom oružja), ni manje ni više nego u Bibliji. Naime, kod u Bibliji govori o skrivenom nuklearnom oružju, a navodno jasno ukazuje da Al-Kaida posjeduje takvo oružje. Stotine milijuna kršćana koji su pročitali Bibliju vjerojatno se pitaju kako to da nisu opazili ove jasne reference. Odgovor leži u tome da Drosnin, inače autor bestselera "Biblijski kod", tvrdi kako može vidjeti stvari koje nitko drugi ne može. Naime, Drosnin vjeruje da Biblija sadrži kodove (skrivene u brojkama i slovima) koji točno predviđaju svjetske događaje. No kritičari su pokazali da su značenja koja je otkrio jednostavno rezultat selektivnog odabira podataka iz velikog izbora slučajnih slova unutar biblijskih tekstova. Npr. fizičar David E. Thomas demonstrirao je da su kombinacije koje je Drosnin otkrio samo rezultat "prekopavanja podataka". Ako pokrenete kompjuterski program da pretražuje dovoljno velik dio teksta (bez obzira bilo riječ o Bibliji ili Ratu i miru), tražeći kombinacije (npr. svako 10 ili 12 slovo), u konačnici ćemo dobiti riječi ili rečenice koje mogu imati smisla. Thomas je dao primjer u dijelu teksta iz Drosninove nove knjige. "Radilo se o 3681 slovu nakon što sam uklonio zareze i razmake. Pokrenuo sam 2 algoritma i premda je poglavlje kratko, manifestiralo je tajanstveni "Biblijski kod". Našao sam npr. riječi "taština" i "prevara" u jednoj analizi, te riječ "megalomanija" u drugoj. Znače li ti kodovi nešto? Naravno da ne! Samo pokazuju kako se lagano skrivene poruke mogu pronaći u bilo kojem tekstu", objašnjava. Drosnin međutim ne objašnjava zašto bi Bog želio sakriti važne poruke u biblijske tekstove, a koje se mogu otkriti samo pomoću kompleksnih kompjuterskih algoritama. Ako je smatrao da je poruka važna, vjerojatno bi je predstavio na jasan i transparentan način.
