This is a minor pet peeve of mine.
Isaac Newton wasn't "doing alchemy" in the smoothbrain magical sense your divorced aunt is; Isaac Newton was trying to invent chemistry, he just didn't succeed (give him a break, you can't win them all).

Are you implying that trying to achieve a higher state of human vibration by letting the rays of a blood moon pass through an amethyst chalice containing the blood of a virgin castrati, a ray that is then focused by a convex lens into a single point of holy light onto the center location of a subject's third eye is somehow less valid science than a Renaissance-era volcel trying, but failing, to invent organic chemistry?
