In Psalm 46 of this translation, the forty-sixth word is "shake," and the forty-sixth word from the end is "spear." Before concluding that the biblical translators were trying to be humorous with these specific word placements, you would be best advised to recognize the danger ofA) considering these facts as statistically significant.

B) randomly sampling biblical passages.
C) generalizing from extreme examples.
D) assuming that most people share your opinions.
E) perceiving order in coincidental events.
