The bible and the semantic web (again)ΒΆ

Tags: faith

I found on James Tauber's weblog another article about the semantic web and the bible

Christian Bible usage has some interesting similarities to Semantic Web stuff. The Holy Bible can be seen as a small Semantic Web itself. Some social and cultural practice around the Bible are similar to Semantic Web practice.

And at the end of the article:

To a savvy Christian, all this Semantic Web stuff is thousand years old and we relax by quoting Salomo (Ecc 1, 10):

 "What has been will be again,
 what has been done will be done again;
 there is nothing new under the sun. "
