Aumann is a religious Orthodox Jew who has supported Bible Code research. He’s brilliant and an expert, but yes, he’s crazy according to local mores.
Of course, that doesn’t mean we should dismiss his work. Newton spent much of his life on Christian mysticism.
Aumann [...] has supported Bible Code research.
Wow!
Google tells me:
The Bible code is simply a fact. [Quoted in a book published in 1997.]
and
Research conducted under my own supervision failed to confirm the existence of the codes—though it also did not establish their non-existence. So I must return to my a priori estimate, that the Codes phenomenon is improbable. [From a paper published in 2004.]
As I’m sure we all know, the so-called “bible code” turned out to be a way to find just about any phrase you want from any document whatsoever.
