All of this means, of course, that Jesus died an old man in South France, Mary Magdalene is really the savior of the world, womyn are the bearers of True Wisdom, and white male christians are the devil.

If these connections are not apparent to you, you just need to have lunch with Dan Browne. We'll get that scheduled as soon as he returns from counting his money in a large Swiss bank vault.

Isn't this the work mentioned in Code, where the heroine threatens to run her knee through it? IIRC this painting was done on wood, not canvas, and would be tough to cut with a knee bone...Oh well. Not the biggest booboo in Code, is it?

DaVinci was truly a genius.
Few people know that he was the first artist
to render the Virgin Mary in mozarella and pepperoni.

>>>"Why he painted over the work may never be known">>>>

I can tell you why he painted over it right now. A shortage of canvasses, he really didn't like the way it was turning out and he had a sale for another painting. I do that all the time myself. Not everything you start gets finished.

I love it how so many idiots are ready to accept the work of a painter,1400 years AFTER Christs death as gospel. shows just how much influence Satan really has. Nothing would please the Islamofascist more than to have the Christian faith undermined.

I'll stick with the Bible thank You.

I'm referring to the whole DaVinci BS. Not the painting as such. Sometimes a painting is JUST a painting.

What happened to Leo?

He grazed one of the Titanic's screws while doing an underwater scene.

How is the drawing beneath the painting undermining your Christian faith?

It doesn't. But many are so superficial they actually can't see past the latest fade.

Aside from a fiction book recently published, what has DiVinci done to qualify for this?

As I understand it, interest in him relates to his obvious mechanical genius and artistic talent.
