Oy vay! 
Although it was heartening to at least get a glimpse of the counterargument to this tripe, I've never heard a bunch of bull so well rationalized in my life.
Did these nuttos actually listen to themselves spewing their stupidity?
First of all, the Torah is a large text which makes for an effervescent amount of chances to find anything.
Second, the Hebrew alphabet is very flexible, including the alphabet doubling as numbers (which is very convenient).
Third, add on that the "coded" text can be forward, backward, horizontal, vertical, diagonal, have varying spacing, has no specific syntax, can be words, names, strings of text, sentences, numbers, and other factors.
What do you get? Whatever you want to find!
The one code that requires a backhand slap is the 'Gore' 'President' one. Then, when he doesn't win, they search hard and find 'Thinks Maybe'. Ummm, hmmm, is this GOD speaking or the imbecile who was twiddling the dials of the program?
And finally, the end of the show was a particulary idiotic gem of horse manure. According to their 'predictions', there is a chance of (in chronological order):
1. A civilization ending asteroid impact.
2. Followed by terrorists use of nuclear weapons.
3. Followed by smallpox epidemic.
Well, if 1 happens, 2 and 3 are basically moot, now aren't they. A large enough impact wouldn't leave much of a civilization to nuke. There'd be no reason. And smallpox would be a minor infection compared to the plagues that would follow the impact.
Total insanity like this just makes me want to devastate it completely and methodically, to the point where they look as stupid as they appear.
Robert - done ranting...
