You realize that we are writing about the 17th Century, because that is the way things worked. That is like saying that there were no doctors before germ theory.Sir Isaac Newton was a dedicated alchemist, spending more time on this pursuit than physics, driven by the search for the Philosopher's Stone to achieve transmutation and elixir of life,
Viewing it as a spiritual path to understand God's creation, with his extensive, hidden writings revealing a scientific approach to "chemistry" that linked Hermetic tradition to modern chemistry. His alchemical work, though secret, involved rigorous experimentation, deciphering ancient texts, and potentially influenced his concepts of universal forces like gravity, bridging Renaissance occultism with 18th-century science.
