Nobody is the expert, so what's the point of talking about it? Just to point fingers and accuse without the evidence. GOP did conclude that it came from a Chinese lab, but without any evidence. Politicians in China concluded it came from Pentagon, also without any evidence.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
