Isaac Newton #AfterNote

Who doesn’t know Isaac Newton? The story of the falling apple.
At the beginning, like any other people, I admire Isaac Newton for his superb invention, law of gravity, his theory of light and color. It gives me an impression of how bright he is.
Yet, after watch this video, I smile. He’s just like any other human being. He is genius, certainly. And he is weak at some other parts as well. He’s a hopeless farmer in fact. And For the truth, he’s neurotic person.
Some said he even belongs to the freemasonry society. Yet here comes the shocking truth. It revealed from his own writing. He denied trinity. He admitted the oneness of God (Tauhid). He mentioned that Jesus is only a man.  For me, it's still unbelievable. 
Moving on, I found another surprising thing about Newton as he realized about the Divinity. He then dealt with chemical. And become his passion. Buried himself in an exploration of how life begins, and deathly curious about gold. Suddenly, I remember a book with such very similar story. The Alchemist, of Paulo Cello. The scientist, is it Newton he’s talking about?!

He’s a man who opens the door.
