Moby Dick

Posted by: OzGuyLooking

With all the interest in various codes and psychic happenings predicting future events I though I would have a look on the net for this type of thing. I cannot ever be accused of not researching when it has been suggested I look into things. Any way the fist site I come across had some very interesting things to say about the author of the Bible Codes books which I will let you read for yourselfs at this link, http://cs.anu.edu.au/~bdm/dilugim/torah.html

The link is from the Australian National Uni in Canberra. I had a squizy around a loh and behold what do I find that the famous book "Moby Dick" is also full of codes, something which Mr Drosnin (Author of Bible Codes) dared people to use to refute his findings in the Bible/ Saying if they find codes in Moby Dick then I will believe them. Well they did find 'codes' in Moby Dock and he still hasn't admitted he is wrong. "War and Peace" is apparantely an intersting read as well if you are into hidden messages.

Here is some of the Moby Dick findings. The page itself has pics which didn't come out here to illustrate the info.

Assassinations Foretold in Moby Dick!
The following challenge was made by Michael Drosnin:

When my critics find a message about the assassination of a prime minister encrypted in Moby Dick, I'll believe them.
(Newsweek, Jun 9, 1997)

Note that English with the vowels included is far less flexible than Hebrew when it comes to making letters into words. Nevertheless, without further ado, we present our answer to Mr Drosnin's challenge.
Prime Minister Indira Gandhi
President Rene Moawad
Soviet exile Leon Trotsky
The Reverend Martin Luther King

(The underlined words were found by Shannon Kohl)
Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss
The assassin Sirhan Sirhan
John F. Kennedy
President John F. Kennedy was shot in the head by an assassin who quietly waited in a concealed place. It was in Texas, November 1963, during a presidential motorcade.

Abraham Lincoln
President Abraham Lincoln was shot dead on April 14, 1865.

Yitzhak Rabin
Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin was shot dead on November 4, 1995. His assassin was Igal Amir, who fired three shots of which one hit Rabin fatally in the chest. Amir was a student at Bar-Ilan University, and associated with an underground group Eyal which modelled itself on a historical terrorist group called Lehi. Amir was angered by Rabin's role in the "Peace Process" and especially by the Oslo accords.

You can verify the above messages, and find your own, using the public-domain text of Moby Dick. It can be downloaded as a gzipped text file (478KB, expanding to 1187KB).

Some more information about the pictures can be found here.
Princess Diana's death
The death of Lady Diana was also predicted by Moby Dick. See the Princess Di page for details.
A note to the credulous
It has come to my attention that some people have taken this page as claiming that Moby Dick really predicted the assassinations of famous people. Please be assured that none of these patterns happened by other than pure random chance.

No laws of probability are violated here, or even stretched a little. That is also true of Drosnin's book, which is the whole point of this page. Once you learn Drosnin's rules (none) and the method (a bit of messy programming) you can find things like this anywhere. The reason it looks amazing is that the number of possible things to look for, and the number of places to look, is much greater than you imagine.
