Thanks Dave, I understand I got your attention. Good.
I will try to deal with the matter asking one question at a time so we do not get entangled in too many threads. Please bear with me, it may take some time until we get to real methodological problems but there is no hurry. And thanks in advance for your patience.
Let's start with a simple one:
Which text of the Peshitta have you analyzed?
You said that "Kevin Acres sent me an edition of the Aramaic Peshitta version of The NEW TESTAMENT for Codefinder and a copy with a scrambled control text as well." But, can this text (which has 461094 letters and which you have made a base of your findings) be made publicly available in a free electronic format so anyone could for themselves confirm/reject your results? By "free" I mean a non-proprietary format, easy to import to computer programs and easy to parse and use in calculations. If this electronic text was also "free" as in a "free beer" then it would be even better.
An experiment should be independently repeatable.
