I wasn't sure where to place this thread so I played safe and stuck it here.
I read a recent news report that scrolls recovered from Pompey are being read for the first time. The scrolls were part of a library found there. Because they are badly charred and fragile up until now they were unreadable. In Britain a team of IT experts have found a way of reading them by using X rays to trace the ink impressions left behind and read by a specialised Computer programme. So far the few examined appear to be copies of the works of Philosophers Archimedes being one of them. There are about 1600 of these scrolls found so far and they were believed to have been owned by Julius Caesars father in law! It would be incredible if some Christian writings were found.
The other thing I want to mention is a documentary on what has been called the God code. This is supposed to be a hidden code found in the Bible which predicted among many other things Christs birth and crucifixion in Genesis and a disturbing message in the Psalms about a Nuclear Holocaust with Korea being destroyed. I don't quite know what to make of it. One main message is about the location of the Ark of the covenant which according to the programme may contain the original Torah scroll Moses received from God. Its location is not on the Temple Mount but under a spring in Jerusalem Claimed to be the real site of Solomans Temple. There are codes in the Bible found by understanding the underlying meaning of names places and numbers used as symbols throughout the text. This has been known for centuries but this code is a huge leap from there. What do people on site
think about all this?
