If you're interested in reading up on this, I suggest BJT Dobbs. Failing that, why not ask Bede? I don't doubt that he could point you towards some decent material. |

I didn't know Newton spoke modern English. Or that there were handy recording devices to document his conversation with the atheist friend. I wonder what other conversations he had that we haven't been told about.

I agree that the "unnamed atheist friend" is a bit strange, SLD.

I find it odd that the atheist friend hadn't thought about this before. That smacks of bullshit to me.
Newton was probably crazier than a shit house rat due to his frequent ingestion of mercury. |
