Steve Shaw: Laugh of the day: Brought to you by mule headedness. Mule Headedness making men seem dumber since the last words of StevSha the cave man "A proper cave bear would never be hibernating when the sun is this high in the sky. "

>>>Steve, you have said that you cannot excuse Newton for his work on alchemy despite the fact that that was mainstream thinking at the time.

I care not a jot what was mainstream thinking at the time. In parts of the US in the 60s black people were not allowed to sit on white people's bus seats. That was mainstream thinking at the time too.<<<

The issue is not whether Newton believed in Alchemy, He obviously did. He wrote "scientific papers" about it. The accusation being leveled at you is about your speculations about his insanity.

Tell us Steve, Did Jefferson and Washington have "Berlin walls in their brains?" about slavery? Did virtually every politician in the UK have a similar mental edifice of the mind about Gay rights until recently? Did your ancestors? If you can prove this there is certainly a Nobel Prize in medicine in your future. It will be called the Shaw Wall no doubt.
