[QUOTE="mattqatsi, post: 126705, member: 11888"] Well since my beliefs are already out in the introduction thread, I'll say that this excerpt is from the Gospel of Mark. These last twelve verses, verses 9-20, are disputed in some Biblical circles. Some older manuscripts do not contain these last twelve, so the Divine Inspiration of them was called into question. What's funny and honestly pretty cool is that every time someone tries to attack the Bible with some "error" or some "contradiction," these apparent contradictions reveal a much much deeper hidden Truth. Seeking out the resolution of a contradiction sometimes, like this time, can prove that not only are two passages in agreement, it would be impossible for them to be written like that without Divine Guidance. (Quick example: People say that the Bible says the value of pi is exactly 3, which on the outside, surface interpretation, it does. But when you dig deeper, you'll find that we're given a number that works out to a value that is accurate to the 12th decimal. Pi wasn't even known to that degree until centuries later.) I get a little excited about this stuff, and I thought you guys might find that cool since you're one of the few other faiths that believes in a Living Word. I really like that shared belief, that we're not satisfied with a God we can read about, I can't tame this Deity. Anyways, I looked up the musical structure on google and I didn't really get what I was looking for. Do you know of any professional who you could refer me to? As to what I was talking about, these verses, as well as a few others, have a heptadic structure in the original written Greek. It's a sevenfold structure, everything is wrapped in sevens, everything is divisible by sevens: the amount of words, the types of words, the number of letters, the numerical values of the letters, the numerical values of the words, the numerical values of sections. Nearly everything is divisible by seven. To me, this shows divine inspiration. I mean, this is something that was written 2,000 years ago and the chance of the 34 different heptadic (sevenfold) features of this passage working out is calculated to be: 7^34 = 54,116,956,037,952,111,668,959,660,849 One million supercomputers, composing 400 million drafts per second, would require over 4 million years to complete that number. And that's only with 34 features, I'm going through a book right now (and learning Greek along the way) that claims to have found 75 different heptadic features in just these 12 verses. I should have chosen a less complex example, but this one still works. I was wondering if there was anything similar in the Sikh Scriptures since they're supposed to be another "living Scripture." (I'm not saying it isn't if there isn't, I'm just wondering if there's the same... mathematical wheels underneath the words.) [/QUOTE]
