    Try being a bit more critical of the source. Some already questionable sources like the independent (a tabloid) say some scientists and doctors investigated, but who are there doctors and scientists? This needs to be a wholly transparent process, we can’t trust the word of a handful of nameless researchers. Something of this level of importance needs a significant number of researchers involved, because a handful of people are easy to corrupt. See the discovery of cold fusion debacle.

    Already, researchers from the university that supposedly carbon dated the specimen are saying they never collected anything from the specimen, so who knows what they actually tested. Maussan refuses to explain where/how he came into possession of these “bodies”. What company did the DNA test, and has it been through secondary, tertiary independent testing? If you’re trusting a tabloid that tells you some random doctors and researchers have done things, utilize some critical thinking, don’t trust it. Be skeptical.

      That is a fair criticism. I’m waiting for individuals not linked to Maussan to independently verify or dismiss his claims.

      I want to clarify that by sharing this article, I am in no way putting my stamp of approval on it or saying I agree with the results. I don’t. There’s too much shadiness surrounding this whole thing, and I need more reputable individuals to get involved and investigate.

      I shared the article for others to view and make up their own minds.
