8. Leonardo da Vinci

The Telegraph today highlights an exhibition in London at the National Gallery.

The question is, should someone who was by all accounts a sky fairy myth believer be given this level of admiration and praise?

To us it just seems irresponsible. Sure, he produced stunning art, but surely we've evolved since then to reject these antiquated, sky fairy stories of Virgin births, Immaculate Conceptions, Incarnations, Saints and the rest of it.

Nice art, but this kind of sky fairy myth nonsense shouldn't be promoted. It might give people ideas about some weird, supernatural ridiculousness.

Leonardo! Whatever were you thinking, man?! We know you were a mathematician as well as an artistic genius. Do the maths!

No evidence + faith = no evidence!

No evidence = no God!

No evidence + people with faith = sky fairy myth believing cretins!

It's easy, fruitcake! Do the sums! If GCSE kids can get it right in our modern education system, apart from in those repulsive, vile, indoctrinating, dangerous, 'faith schools', all of which should be closed down, leaving only atheistic academies still standing, then why couldn't you?! Nutter!
