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

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.

If you're referring to The DaVinci Code, I agree it's trash, but it's a work of fiction and you really shouldn't let it undermine your enjoyment or understanding of one of the most brilliant men who ever lived. His devotional artworks are unrivalled masterpieces.
