Evidence of the Bible's Validity

[Esquilax]

Sam thing applies here. Some people think that the numbers mean something special. Regardless of whether or not they do, they are still the numbers for which we are looking. It has nothing to do with their mystical meaning or anything like that.

Yes, that's the point: you are looking for those numbers, and so you've reverse engineered a scenario that will lead you to those numbers based on arbitrary rules. The numbers have significance; the method by which you came to derive them from this particular source does not, beyond that you've proposed a method to drive to that certain conclusion. That's leading the evidence.

And I say "evidence" in the loosest possible sense, here.
