I really enjoyed you choice of words and can clearly say: I have never seen “All” and “Y’all” in the same sentance.

Just remarkable!

Both Serena and David are right... my book says "Leonardo Da Vinci, Madonna on the Rocks, 1483-85. Oil on wood, TRANSFERRED to canvas.." That is the second one Da Vinci painted. But I was wondering, as I'm looking at the original from my book, isn't the baby on the right John the Baptist along with his mother Elizabeth? And if thats the case it's not Jesus' apostle but his cousin and his aunt. I am looking at my art book, I am a college freshman and am very much into this whole Jesus had a wife thing.

While it was a great read, I beg you all to remember fiction is simply that. During recent court case it was made clear that Brown (and his wife) were out to write a novel based around art works that exist today for an added realistic aspect. This is the hook- we know the artwork and that keeps us intrigued- how they all link together to provide the clues needed to solve the chase is why people found the book so good. Leonardo was a genius and ahead of his time, but the theories Brown puts foward are conspiriacies and he readily admits that.

Leonardo just like everyone of us was a MAN. How can anyone say that HE is not the one pulling a hoax? Afterall, it's not like he was present at the "Last Supper" telling all parties to: "Please, smile and stay still" while he paints their portrait. What we have is the "word" of a common man, genuis, famous painter... but also a bitter person that really didn't like how things were at the time and in the end known as a prankster. Basically, I take this information, for what it's worth... just informational input. When the time comes, and the Lord is willling, I will know what's meant for me to know.

When you say you \"belive each word came in the DVC, coz it built on logical conclusions\", do you mean you believe everything that Brown writes in his novel? If so, perhaps reading these articles might be beneficial: http://davinci.thelife.com/2006/05/23/did-leonardo-da-vinci-hate-the-bible/ http://davinci.thelife.com/2006/05/20/podcast-opus-dei-and-the-priory-of-sion/ http://davinci.thelife.com/2006/05/26/how-many-gospels/ http://davinci.thelife.com/2006/05/29/was-jesus-considered-merely-a-man/ If an argument is based on a firm foundation, then it may be viable, but if it is based on sloppy research and misrepresenting history, then it is not. victor, your comment is interesting.

TDVC was actually factually correct about the art. The dimensions he mentions are correct too, I rememebr being taller than the painting while looking at it, and I am definetely not 6.5ft!!!
