Lament from the Sea, New Method! f2r

So you think I'm wasting yours and my time?

You aren't wasting my time - I like reading your posts. But I think this note may be important because the same issue came up with numerology also:

I used your exact method and posted all my work. You say the devil wrote the VMS, I say it was Nostradamus. Gematria says that we're both right at the same time. That means there's a problem with Gematria: the system doesn't give just one answer; it gives multiple results that contradict each other.

A good test before claiming that you've found the answer to the VMS is asking: can my system produce multiple answers? Or is the devil (or John Dee) the one and only answer that my method produces? That will be a good litmus test to see if you are correct. Indeed, it is a good test to perform to decide if your solutions are fit to publish.

If your system can produce only one solution, you have solved the VMS. But if your system can produce multiple contradictory solutions (Satan wrote the VMS - no, Nostradamus did - no, a third person did) then it is not a good solution. Try to prove your own system wrong: see if you can't make your system churn out a paragraph about JFK and the moon landing, or a Chinese zodiac, or any random thing. If you can, that may be an indicator that the solution is too loose.
