Quote:Calling "silly" the opinions of well-respected scholars (or of other people in general) can be a good way to get more clicks on a blog, but I think it should be forbidden on the forum.
We stand for cultivated discussion, if I'm not mistaken this has been included somewhere in our guidelines.
As for origin, it's important to distinguish between "production origin" and "content origin". Like, if I publish Milton, production origin is Moscow, Russia, while content origin is London, England. Did not follow the discussion in detail, but not sure the two are not messed in the discussion. If I understand correctly, the experts above quoted are judging by the content, so their assessment is of the origin of the content (or parts thereof). While DNA tests could point only to the place of production.
