Science was once a child of the church.

I don't need to separate the two; there's no connection between them to separate. Newton's Christianity did not cause him to discover gravity, and one could equally say, as I pointed out earlier, that Newton believed in his ability to defecate before he believed in god; clearly, if we're just randomly connecting beliefs to deeds here, there's stronger evidence that Isaac Newton's belief in his need to poop caused him to discover gravity, and you cannot separate the two.

After all, Newton definitely pooped more than he hung out in churches. He was pooping for longer, and I have no doubt the feeling of doing so was more satisfying. Hell, he would have died if he didn't, which should demonstrate his conviction about his poop. Clearly, Isaac Newton was a pooper more than he was a Christian. If any belief led him to his discovery of gravity, it's more likely to be the poop thing, just on the balance of probability.

Or could it be that these things are unconnected, and that trying to draw a connection between them is dishonest chicanery? Thinking
