Sneaky Michelangelo
When Michelangelo painted the chapel ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in 1512 he actually never named the various panels, instead, we have given them names. However, does the famous "creation" (where God and Adam's fingers nearly touch) contain an image that has been misunderstood for 487 years--a brain that symbolizes God bestowing intellect on man. Over the previous half millennium scholars have interpreted the painting to mean God bestowed life on man. A Professor by the name of Dr. Meshberger researched Michelangelo's private life and found that the artist had deep religious beliefs and used to dissect cadavers to study the human form for his art. The following drawing illustrate how Dr. Meshberger identifies many of the brain's structures inthe image of God's swirling cloak and the surrounding angels.
Did God bestow intellect on man? Or did man just create the image of God in his mind?
