Re: recent NOVA show on Newton; in defense of Newton

I wrote:
I believe in the segment where Halley is talking to Newton about what
geometrical figure a inverse square law would produce, that the
nonmention of Kepler is out of place. Kepler worked all of that out. So
this segment is vastly wrong and makes the viewer think that Halley or
Newton never knew of Kepler. They mentioned Galileo, but they should
have mentioned Kepler and also Leibniz fight over calculus.

A.P. further writes:
Newton as mentioned in the program never shared his idea of what God
is. I believe Newton had a Descarte idea of God in that the Universe is
a God machine. But Newton could never voice his opinions of God while
he lived except for the calculation of 2060 as Armageddon. But this
Newton armageddon is not the Bible armageddon but the reverse. In other
words, I believe Newton's 2060 is the year in which humanity comes to
realize overall that all religions on Earth are phony baloney and that
Science is God because only science is the truth and no other endeavor
is the truth. God certainly is the truth so that makes Science is god
and god is Science.

Now I do not know whether Spinoza ideas had reached Newton, the Spinoza
pantheism. In a sense Descartes idea of Universal Machinery is
pantheism.

So, what I believe Newton was doing with this date of 2060, was
estimating when humanity will free itself of the shackles of unreason,
irrationality and sensation of religion. When humanity trashcans the
supernatural religion and when humanity finally realizes that Science
itself is god and that god is the entire Universe as one big atom of
plutonium where dots of the electron-dot-cloud are galaxies.

So, the atom totality theory was discovered in 1990 and by the time of
year 2060, according to Newton (my hunch) is that by 2060, humanity for
the most part will have embraced Science as god and will have
trashcanned those supernatural bible hogwash. Where a person who wants
to learn about god simply studies physics or biology or chemistry and
not the crap of deluded old men in ancient desert climates.
