I just let the reader draw their own conclusion, despite whatever else the article may say about the scource or the validity of the scource.
Inconculsive is still inconclusive- but if no 'published' scource can be found for any quote made by Newton or Einstein, I too would stop quoting them as having said something that cannot be found in any scource. But I still believe scources can be removed or altered as well.
First one about astrology.
And a second article about religion having the same basic return, "Because Sir, I have studied it and you have not." Or vice-versa.
p101James' Question about who Albert Eistein called "an incomparable man."
The Answer is: A: Johannes Kepler.
Get your ass over here so I can screw your head off and use it for a weather balloon.
And so- I could have said the same thing. That doesn't mean I don't believe in astrology.
But it sounds like Einstein wants him to come to the U.S., to invite him to an American philosophical symposium instead of wasting his efforts in Europe.
And?
I said removed or altered. Mainly removed. But any book can be removed, only to have the reprint (if any) altered. Otherwise it's just removed.
In the U.S., any book that has been officially removed from new bookstores by government order, like "Blood Money, & Power", by Barr MacClelland 2003, can still be bought and sold as used books.
zzQwerty- get over here so I can unscrew your head and use it for a Jack o'lantern. But keep the pumpkin seeds.
Google: Newtom and Astrology. The astrological referrence to Halley and Newton is found in the first article- third paragraph.
You are either being deliberately obtuse, or you have no idea how to reference your sources. You are talking about van Gent's article, aren't you? The one entitled "Isaac Newton and Astrology: Witness for the Defence or for the Prosecution?".
We've all been over this numerous times, but I think it really all boils down to you being wilfully ignorant and obstinate. You don't want to know the truth, because you would have to admit that you believe in a big crock of shit.
I appreciate your posted referrence; and I should add- I believe every word of it because Newton later said practically the same thing at a college symposium to a student who asked, "why does someone like you, believe in astrology (to that effect if not word for word). Newton's answer was, "Because sir, I have studied it, and you have not."
No one here is going to convince me otherwise. It was broadcast over the radio in a program about the complexity of Sir Isaac Newton.
If I Google "Newton and Astrology", what more is there than "one" page with about 5 or 6 comments. Footnotes? I do not get what you're talking about past that page unless you really are not joking. If so- I'm not lolling.
