Now it gets really weird.

Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

And here's the kicker...

Does this lot pass the fact-check test?

I like it. It shows crazy coincidences can exist and don't have to mean anything. It looks like it was written in the first place to lead into a joke. The punchline is a bit lame though.
While it's natural to clock coincidences and speculate about meaning, sometimes weird coincidences are going to just happen. Given the volume of people you could look at, it would be surprising if fate didn't throw up freaky convergences from time to time. I wonder how many similar comparisons there are out there nobody has noticed yet.

As far as the Kennedy connection; is it coincidence or synchronicity?

Yeah, two or three things is a coincidence. That fucking laundry list ^^^ up there ain't no mere fucking "coincidence". That's some crazy cosmic shit in high fucking gear right there!!

Yet Lincoln's wife, Mary Todd was part of the Satanic Collins Group (Roicrucian / Illuminati) and said to have practiced the occult.

She's mentioned at the outset of the 2nd section of this link...

Re coincidences, there was a novel about an 'unsinkable' luxury liner called the Titan hitting an iceberg about 14 years before the Titanic disaster, and there were other similarities between the story & the real event, such as the location, month, number of passengers, number of deaths (not exact matches, but close) inadequate quantity of life-boats etc.

Get yer 911 coincidences out then sunshine.

A new thread would probably be best I suppose.
