The Math Secrets Behind `The King`s Calendar`

Australian theologian and historian, R.P.BenDedek, has offered in a recent article titled, `The Math & Science of `The King`s Calendar`, a challenge to the academic world, to debunk his research results. He states that `the mathematical link between the 364 day calendar, the 336 day calendar, and the chronologies of the Dead Sea Sect, Josephus and the Bible, is real, demonstrable, able to be scientifically tested, and beyond coincidence. Statistically speaking, it is impossible for the artificial chronological scheme running through these writings, to be anything other than the result of deliberate design.`

BenDedek, who worked on his research for 10 years before publishing directly to the internet, insists that the mathematical nature of the King`s Calendar artificial chronology, and its` adherence to the principle of `Lineal causality`, should make it easy for the academic world to disprove his research results if he is wrong.

`The real difference,` he claims, `between the King`s Calendar and other theories, is that the King`s Calendar Hypothesis is based in a demonstrable Mathematical link between a variety of ancient chronological sources.` He maintains that the `scientific ability to mathematically verify or falsify` his research findings, `makes the `King`s Calendar` different, and makes it a truly `Scientific theory`.`
