VICAR---well, it doesnt "prove" anything. It's just very interesting
that da Vinci would add a woman who pretty much HAS to be Mary Mag
sitting at JC's right hand. This is, after all, a painting of JC last
meal with his disciples.....and da V obviously chose to put a person in
the painting most people would NOT see as a disciple.....sitting in the
most important seat---at Jesus' right hand.
It's well known that daV had a sort of love/hate relationship with the
Church, seemed to believe in a Creator but had contempt for the
trappings of religion.
To even add Mary to a painting commissioned by an abbey of nuns (The
Sisters of Mary) and paid for by the Vatican....was a subtle but
definite "screw you" that may or may not have had any historical basis.
The fact that, when asked, "Who is she and why is she in this painting?"
and da V replied, "What???Why, that's JOHN!" is significant. Clearly,
he was seeing what he could get away with....and laughing at the
Catholic Church.
However, if there really WAS a group of men (I forget their title, the
"Priory du Sion"?) who knew and guarded the secret of Jesus' marriage to
Mary and the daughter she produced, it's more than likely da V was one
of those men chosen. IF so, he both guarded AND revealed the
secret---in a most subtle way.
Clearly, IF JC produced a child and IF that child bore children...the
possibility of people being alive today carrying the blood of Jesus the
Christ....is staggering.
....and not likely to be something the Catholic Church would want known.
Nor would these descendants be safe.
There's no "proof", either way---no proof JC was...or was NOT married.
But the possibility (likelihood, in my opinion) is fascinating. Dont
you agree?
IF he was married and a father, and IF this information was REMOVED from
the gospels....clearly, nobody BUT the Church could have made this
deletion---- a cover-up that makes Watergate look like a Sunday school
picnic....not even close.
Consider the vast power the Church had (and still has). How much power
would be lost by the common knowledge that Jesus was first and foremost
a MAN, a human with blood, sperm and offspring? For the Church to have
maximum celestial power, their Main Guy HAD to be a celestial type---no
mere human man with a wife and a kid.
Any decision made to remove texts for the purpose of removing Jesus'
humanity....is political by it's very nature---intended to elevate Jesus
ABOVE the human state and raised the Church above the human
state....and there aint no power like Heavenly power.
....and NO scam ever run by anybody compares.

LOL, well, FOR SURE, in da Vinci's MANY paintings of the Last Supper,
the figure to his right was EITHER a flaming,red-wavy-haired no-beard
effiminate man (supposed to be John) OR a woman. Im going with woman,
myself, and Mary, at that, his number 1 deciple.
ummm...Da Vinci wasnt there...while i agree the person to Jesus' right
is clearly a woman...what does that prove?
