So, performing one of dozens of similar arbitrary operations to bible verses gives something that should only happen about 1 in 90,000 times.
Generously assuming there are only 10 such similar methods, that means that this is an amazing feat if there are substantially less than 9,000 verses in the bible. Say, for instance if there were 900 verse in the bible*, then it would be as remarkable as a 1 in 10 chance, say picking a card at random from a deck and it being a 7 or something equally unbelievable.
Hmmm.
