Which is why Leonardo and other artists/writers of his time used codes - in Leonardo's day, there were boxes into which people could anonymously drop someones name, accusing them of a crime that would bring them before the Inquisition. If you didn't want to become a human marshmallow, you were very careful

I thought you had to be at a Priory of Sion meeting today. Look, Leonardo was NOT hiding secret codes about Jesus in his works. It's a fantasy. Get over it and get back on your meds. And he wasn't afraid of the "Inquisition," either. Try getting your history from some reputable sources.

Okay, I'll bite. What do you consider "reputable" sources?

Having been accused and faced the inquisition himself - (charges dropped) and also living in a time when scientists were also imprisoned/killed - and he also delving in inventions - he would have been unwise not to have been afraid -
