The Voynich Manuscript

Has anyone here ever read this? Any thoughts? It's very difficult for me to understand, and some of the illustrations are unsettling. I'm just wondering if it's worth getting through the whole thing. How long did it take you to read?

I can't believe the guy's wife leaves him at the end. After everything he did for her and because of her, I think she should have been a little more understanding.

? It's written in code that has not been deciphered. Of course it's difficult to understand...

Yet another gnostic text, cryptic (literally), that if we only could comprehend its meaning all would be well with the world..or not.

So you're saying you don't have Saargard's Lens?

+1

That would be an affirmative. Maybe my crystal skull can send me some telepathic signals and decipher the manuscript for me...

In my experience, a crystal skull will only reveal the glowing activation runes printed on every 7th page. These runes do nothing unless you speak the words of power, though (which are clearly outlined in the text of the VM).

Let me know if you want to borrow the Lens. I'll need to find it, though. I left it in a pile of shrunken heads and wings of bat, so it should still be there.

I read Finnegans Wake from cover to cover every night before I go to sleep.

The Voynich Manuscript is a religious text for reptile people.





(Seriously, it's a centuries old con, it's just squiggly lines and random drawings.)
