But it has no bearing on this debate. The church once punished Galileo for postulating that the earth revolved around the sun. There is also historical perspective about people challenging a theory that makes them uncomfortable too then, no? In the end, that paper is meaningless in this discussion about facts and repercussions. If you want to insinuate a grand conspiracy, you better have more than "historical perspective" as these things are not related
