Well I am a skeptic at heart, and I don't feel being one is a bad thing. But also, when recently so challenged to listen to the experts, I realized something: I actually do listen to them, and always have. In fact I, and anyone who believes this is a modern forgery, along with me, really agrees with most of the experts of the past, and many of the present.

I do listen to the experts, in fact. Do you?

They claim that "the Voynich is a 16th century codex associated with indigenous Indians of Nueva España educated in schools established by the Spanish". If I recall correctly, they even had an author in mind, a 16th century painter known for his work decorating churches.
I just don't get it. Why would Wilfrid Voynich make something that looks like it is made by Mexicans and then try to sell it as the Roger Bacon cipher manuscript?
