Alchemy in its modern form was introduced to the world by a Muslim theist:
Quote:The word alchemy itself was derived from the Arabic word al-kīmiyā' (الكيمياء). The early Islamic world was a melting pot for alchemy. Platonic and Aristotelian thought, which had already been somewhat appropriated into hermetical science, continued to be assimilated during the late 7th and early 8th centuries through Syriac translations and scholarship. In the late 8th century, Jābir ibn Hayyān (Latinized as "Geber" or "Geberus") introduced a new approach to alchemy, based on scientific methodology and controlled experimentation in the laboratory, in contrast to the ancient Greek and Egyptian alchemists whose works were often allegorical and unintelligible, with very little concern for laboratory work

It's ironic that the English word "Alchemy" is derived from the language of theist Muslims who believed and recited the Quran daily; الكيمياء that is.
Still this is about science not knowing but 4% of the universe; while 96% is still hidden.
So your point?

Whats the point about alchemy? The same as above? Showing that people can be wrong about one thing while being correct about something completely different?

I dont even have to make points it seems, you are making them all by yourself. Like any other fool, one just has to keep you talking and you will expose yourself, by yourself.
