Add some info for both sides...

The Bible Code Controversy
Here is a summary of the main arguments with brief comments.


FOR
Publication in the scientific journal Statistical Science passed the rigorous peer review process, and in five years nobody has rebutted this paper.
The probability values that have been quoted for several Bible codes are impressively small, and difficult to simply explain away as coincidence. (The probability value indicates how unlikely or likely it is for something to occur at random.)
Many of the arrays look extremely compact.

AGAINST
The choice of search words or the region of text being searched is often arbitrary leading to accusations of data fudging.
The lack of vowels in the Hebrew text.
Only one Bible code, namely the prominent rabbis in Genesis has passed the peer review process.
Some say that the Bible code lacks purpose.

COMMENTS
The Statistical Science paper itself is extremely complex, and incomprehensible to non-mathematicians. However, it is clear that each code must be examined individually to decide on its own merits whether or not it is valid.
The lack of Hebrew vowels has been a common criticism of the Bible code, but the original Hebrew did in fact lack vowels. The fact that the Bible code works without the vowels is evidence that it is real rather than evidence against it. Vowel markings were added around the 4th century AD to make the bible easier to read.
The purpose of the Bible code is not necessarily to teach us new doctrine, show us a new revelation or warn us of the future. It could simply be a watermark or stamp of authorship from God.

mmm, not sure I believe all these codes, ppl always tend to see/find what they're looking for. I do remember reading though in one of these bible code books that Saddam would be captured alive a couple of months prior to him being so. 9/11 was only the beginning of something huge to come. There will be a nuclear war in a couple of years

...we'll just have to wait and see.

As I recall it, they tried so hard in the bible to find what they wanted that you could use the telephone listing to predict events that already happened.

A true case of self-deception.
