that does make sense (although I never saw it coming). It explains a lot of puzzling things: why western universities are teaching Samskritam but not extinct Gothic, for instance.

I was looking for some document which would explain this fascination for vedic and sanskrit studies in the western universities. This article from Olender clearly explains the reason. This search for explaining the origins has been going on for 300-400 years now.
There are signs that they may abondon this project and go back to evangelical christianity to liberate all humankind and make it the blessed religion in the world.
The reasons are that they are faltering in sanskrit and sanksrit skills in the universities.
But if they can wipe out sanskrit in India and all Indic traces to ancient past then they may not really need to explain the origin of their christian traditions since there will be no other competitor for origin. All humankind will beleive in Adam and Noah in 200-300 years! Converted Indians will claim that they are the blessed one since they preserved the original language as told in the Bible.
