Abstract
This project was inspired by this Reddit post
I noticed the words God, Lord, Allah being mentioned many times and I wanted to get a different context by playing around with different stopwords.
This code produces bar plots of the 10 most common words in the scriptures and a word clouds for each.
Introduction
Why did I do this?
While chatting with my brother-in-law, we started wondering if words in different scriptures had similar meanings and to prove it a Reddit search was made. The Reddit word clouds did not show much of a comparison as most comparisons were very similar so I made this instead.
