DAR
Bible Review had a very persuasive article about a year and a
half ago describing this numerology business and after reading
it I almost had to convert back to Christianity.
Just kidding.
Martin Gardner deals with this and other numerology
nonsense in the March/April '97 issue of Skeptical Inquirer, pg.
16 ("Farrakhan, Cabala, Baha'i, and 19"). He has also written a
book called: "Order and Surprise, (Prometheus Books, 1983)
which deal with this.
