He did write an entire book on the subject. It is hideously boring, terribly written, and seemed wildly speculative. He also thinks you can use his theory of numbers to assist in textual criticism. Say a word is omitted in some manuscripts and not in others: you do a word count, and figure out by the theological significance how many times that word should appear in Scripture: then you know which manuscript is correct.

I guess that might be a little more objective than the standard approach of an eclectic critic.
