This is really neat thanks for sharing.

Neat, yes. Truly God's gift? Probably not. You go through all the various possibilities of words that add up to a given percentage, and the ones that fit what you are trying to say are used, and the ones that don't are discarded. Like, "Love of Devil" = 128%. Why didn't they include that one? Or "atheist" is 119%. God alone only gets you a measly 22%. Gotta get some more letters to make it all work, right?
The phrases "eleven plus two" and "twelve plus one" both contain the same exact letters. And both produce the same exact sum. It's a miracle.
Type 5318008 into a calculator, then turn the calculator upside down. Spells boobies. Praise God! (which is only 94%, BTW).

By the same theory though the "Love of boobies" gets you to 142%.

Turtle,
Do you have to find something negative to say about any post having to do with God, Christians, or Christianity in general?
Do you ever have anything positive? I'd love to know what has happened in your life, for you to feel it is necessary to tear apart anything to do with God.

Math is very cool. The show Numbers often illustrated how amazing math can be. The young woman Danica Keller, a television personality, is lesser known publickly for her math abilities and authorship of books to show anyone, and especially girls, that math can be for anyone. Although lesser known, that's probably her greater achievement and certainly her most valuable one.
No, but when it's there I have no problem pointing it out. Just because someone claims something is Godly or divine doesn't make it so, and this especially applies to selective, simplistic coincidence. My comments were solely in response to Juju's comments, and I didn't even say that she was wrong, I merely noted that infinite possibilities of mathematical equations, a handful of which can relate in a simplistic way to God, and the overwhelming majority of them not relating to simplistic correlations at all, is probably not God's gift. I don't see how that is negative towards God. Why is what I said negative? Is it because I don't blindly accept as divine what others say is divine? Is it because I choose to think for myself rather than letting others think for me?
Sure. But I won't make up positive things just to give God credit. Like, not too long ago an expediter died in an accident, and people fell all over themselves praising God for sparing his life, just so he could lay there in a drug induced stupor while in abject pain and agony for nine days before be finally died. If you're going to give God credit, you've got to give God blame. Or, you could do neither and see it for what it actually is.
That's a loaded statement, no different from saying, "I'd love to know when you stopped beating your wife." One, I don't feel is necessary to tear apart anything to do with God. If you see it that way, then you apparently feel that any criticism of God or Christianity is not allowed. Sorry. Two, nothing happened in my life to make me feel that way. I simply choose to open my mind to logic and reality rather than close it off to mystical fantasy. As Leo notes, math is very kewl, and a lot of kewl things can be done with numbers and mathematics. Just because some of them can be related somehow to God doesn't make them Godly or divine, it makes it a selective coincidence.
It's not God I have a problem with, it's his fan club that is the problem. To my knowledge, I've never said anything negative about God. Christians and Christianity (most all religions, for that matter), yes, but not God. The thing about religion is, with it or without it, we'd still have good people doing good things, and we'd still have bad people doing bad things, but for good people to do bad things, it takes religion. The tendency to turn human judgment into divine commands makes religion one of the most dangerous forces the world has ever known.
I simply don't feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.
