It doesn't surprise me that you think that way. Our society has extended the respect for all opinions of liberal democracy to respect for all opinions in any field of knowledge. But no. There are authorities in iconography, medicine, or architecture, and there are also authorities in carpentry or automotive mechanics. You either know about a subject or you don't. Of course there can be mistakes, but that does not invalidate the principle of authority.

  However difficult the Voynich manuscript may be to interpret, it is a 15th-century human creation and therefore must have an explanation. Can just anyone get it right? I don't think so.
