The best characteristic of a Voynich researcher is, in my opinion, the realisation that everything he believes about the manuscript, no matter how much evidence he tinks he has amassed, can be absolutely wrong.
The worst problem with your theory is that, with some creativity, the translator can make it into whatever he wants. If I wanted to make it say - in bad grammar - that Hitler wrote the manuscript, I could. Or Jesus or Aliens or me or you. Absolutely everything.
If you were somewhat open to the fact that you, like all of us, do not possess absolute truth, then you would realize this. That you have come up with a system that can make anyone read anything they want in it. After all, the grammar doesn't even have to be correct, words can be omitted and contemporary spelling does not have to be respected.
Numerology allows us to read into these glyphs whatever we desire, and you chose Dee. If you had chosen Voynich himself, you would have been equally successful. Or any author in the entire world.
Just like you could read the snake tale in some other VM pages as well. You would merely have to distort grammar differently and drop some other words.
I know it's hard. You are not the only one. This manuscript has a way of convincing us that our solution must be the right one. But so many others believe the same. That is why, in my opinion, the very best researchers mercilessly and selflessly dump whatever theory they came up with as soon as it is holding them back.
I've told this before, but one of my first ideas aout the manuscript was that it contained recipes for spirits like brandy. However, it just didn't stand against the evidence. I really liked that theory and I saw many clues for it at the time, but the historical record showed that it was impossible. So I dumped it, and am I glad I did!
When someone presents an idea on a forum, it's not about who's wrong or right. It's about what makes sense and what doesn't. Numerology just doesn't...
