Nothing is generally accepted.

Remember that time I naively proposed that we try to determine "positions we agree on"? An undertaking to be quickly forgotten...

Everybody accepts that the Voynich manuscript really exists and is not a figment of our imagination. I think everybody accepts that it contains illustrations of real or imagined plants. Similarly, I think there are other generally accepted basic ideas about what some other illustrations represent. I think it is generally accepted that the script is not a well-known or generally familiar script. More than these kind of very basic statements there seems to be no consensus.

There is another thing that I think is generally accepted; the text is written left to right.
