Maybe he's referring to the bets Newton (somewhat implicitly) made by dedicating time to physics/science as well as alchemy and theology.
- kowdermeister 10y agoI think alchemy at the time was just another domain of science than anything else. To them it was like today's dark matter and dark energy or figuring out cold fusion or reaction-less drives. These are not really bets, it's all what Newton was, a man's passion, life and legacy.
- runesoerensen 10y agoYou're probably right. I think/hope you got the point anyway :)
