But you started off suggesting in post 1:

Quote:The VMS is a copy of several books from the Latin Vulgate Bible:

Yet in scrambled form

Which is it?

Anyway.
Your proposal only makes sense if you have two texts with identical word frequency. You draw up a Zipf graph, overlay them, and see if they correspond identically.
But even this doesn't make sense - a word for word translation from,ie, English to Spanish, won't have identical word frequencies.
For example:

Padre Nuestro, que estás en el cielo, santificado sea tu nombre; venga a nosotros tu reino; hágase tu voluntad, en la tierra como en el cielo.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Two identical and very sacred texts, very different word frequencies, but identical meanings.

All the same David I did change the thrust of the post so that the text more likely is an original work, but to check in on the original proposal text I needed some text.

David, it is common sense that one most know the language for the Zipf distribution to work from its source text than you can unravel it to find out the content.  If the language is foreign than use a translator which of course the word association would have a different frequency.  

I feel that many here who have disagreed with me have come across with unconvincing and weak arguments which do not refute the evidence for the possibility that the VMS could have been manufactured in the way of the method I laid out.  Yet you have strengthened my resolve that the VMS maybe done the way I describe.
