Voynichese is a numeric cipher?

I don't read Russian

Is this an argument against the cipher? Or what? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
Stolfi is right — if it were that simple, it would have been cracked. Maybe not right away and only partially, but it would have been cracked. But in my opinion, VMS is more unusual than complex.

I see a story.  It is a story that is consistent with the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church in 15th century Europe.  I see a complete beginning-to-end story.  I may be the only person on planet Earth who sees it but I see it.  Thus, I see no reason why anyone would make a complete and detailed story -- full of elaborate illustrations -- and then try to hide the message by enciphering or encrypting it.  That makes no sense to me.

If you want to say that they were trying to hide something from the Roman Catholic Church, I don't think they would have included so many naked women.  That is just shouting for attention.

Many people have looked at the illustration at the top of You are not allowed to view links.
