I think Newton was more than just an alchemist. How about Mathmatician. Many of his formulas for math ate in use today.

Really?!? I never knew.....

The point is he was also an alchemist, so I'm going to err on the side of caution and not take his word on philosophical matters as fact. Anybody that believed that bunk had to have more than one screw loose

Why not just lump Newton with Pascal and Galileo and declare them all to be know nothings.

and most scientists are liberals and believe in Glorebal (sic) warming so you have to err on the side of caution when it comes to accepting their words as fact.
