Talk:Isaac Newton's occult studies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is just a poor start I doodled up, while Wikipedia was down. Feel free to try and NPOV it, if you feel it needs it.

Add his studies on Daniel and I think it's complete. I'm betting the studies got bogged in the mistranslation of the suffering servant prophecies... - Sparky 01:16, 21 Jan 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Merge?

Could this be merged with Isaac Newton's religious views? Theres an awful lot of overlap.Borisblue 05:50, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] "Newton was a well known alchemist of his time"?

In this article, it is said that Newton was a well know alchemist of his time. So far as my knowledge of Newton goes, Newton did everything possible to hide his "occult" interests, especially alchemy.

It was only in the 1930s or so, when his papers were auctioned that Newton's occult leanings came to light.

Rather than edit the page straightaway, I would like the opinion and permission of the original author.

Thanks.
