True story: a group of Indian scientists with sense criticize a right-wing group of pseudo-scientists making outlandish claims.

Impression left by BBC headline: Indian scientists are wack

Like, come on. One could do the same by compiling the views of every ridiculous theory espoused by people like Ben "grain silos" Carson or young earth creationists in America and write "American scientists dismiss reason". Are there a significant amount of people that believe nonsense like this? Sure, maybe. Is that representative of American scientists as a whole? Of course not.

And it's the same thing here. I guarantee you a biology grad student at some place like IIT is under no delusions about the origins of stem cell research.

I don't know how anyone could interpret the headline as referring to all Indian scientists.

Personally I'm more bothered by why it says "India scientists" instead of "Indian scientists".
