New section "Controversial" with interesting hipothesis about the Michelangelo's frescos

There is a hipothesis, formed by ukrainian sciencist Konstantin Efetov, that Michelangelo has presented two hidden images on the ceiling: on the fresco "The Creation of Adam" the group of angels around the God is rather similar to the appearance of the human brain, while on the fresco "The Creation of the Sun, Moon and Earth" after turning it over it is possible to find big pictures of male and female genitals. This discovery is treated by K. Efetov as Michelangelo's idea of two steps of the creation of the world: fertilization (symbolized by genitals) and spiritualization (symbolized by brain).

More: In recent times, K. A. Efetov has published several books ("A Shocking Secret of the Sistine Chapel" and "Old Testament’s Secret of the Rib of Adam") and articles devoted to his unusual hypotheses at the crossroads of medicine, art and history. In particular, the author asserts that on Michelangelo’s frescoes in the Sistine Chapel there are several "invisible" images: if examined, they radically change the spectator’s ideas about the specific meaning implanted into these frescoes by their creator. Another hypothesis is dedicated to the interpretation of the biblical myth about the creation of woman from Adam’s rib: the author sees parallels between the components of this myth and the biochemical mechanism of the formation of female sex hormones. These hypotheses did obtain wide response in the Internet and even were used for quizzes in the world championship "What? Where? When?"

K. A. Efetov published four poetic collections: "Wings’ Stroke", "The Black-and-White Square", "The life of the ‘Bats’" and "The Wells of Memory".

OK, at least Efetov is not saying that it's all Russian or something.
