No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess

Living Life for Religion

I can proudly say that I am a religious man. I was born into an Anglican family. I am faithful to my personal God and that the bible is words that he says. God is the creator of the universe and is always watching over us.
It may come off as a shock, however I believe I wrote more about my love for religion and studies for religion than other topics, such as mathematics or the sciences! With my studies towards the bible, I found a few errors. Don’t get me wrong, I did not mean to seem like the church was wrong. I only meant to correct the things that were inaccurate, for example, Christ’s death date, Agronaut’s search and Troy’s fall.
Even with my piety towards Christianity, I still had some opposition. The Trinity Doctrine was one that I opposed. I also do not believe that every person has their own personal devil, based on the orthodox doctrines of the immortal soul. however I fear that if my opinion were to become public, I would be accused of heresy and that accusation would strip away my titles.
God and Jesus Christ were not the same. Christ was not God, thus worshiping Christ as God is a sin. Worshiping him instead of God is idolatry!
Religion was the inspiration and driving force of my life. As I once said, “"I have a fundamental belief in the Bible as the Word of God, written by those who were inspired. I study the Bible daily.”

Optical Discoveries



Depictions of my light observations and telescope.

Theories of Light and that idiot Hooke

As you may know (well actually if you bothered to read my first post) I have invented the reflecting telescope. Wondrous invention indeed, but how did the invention come about? I’ve become extremely curious about colour and light. I found out that a prism could pick apart light, showing many colours… a spectrum! And if you add in a second prism, it will go back to its regular white light. Amazing! With the two prisms, it doesn’t change any of the original properties of the original light. I commenced more experiments and my [Newton’s] theory of colour is born! Light is made of particles that bend into a dense medium. My theory is that “the result of objects interacting with already-coloured light rather than objects generating the colour themselves.”
With my studies, I developed the reflecting telescope that can bypass the issue of chromatic aberration. My notes, On Colour, were encouraged to be published. More of the topic would be included in my book Opticks that was released in 1704. Opticks just contained expanded observations on my theory of light.
I also came up with a Hypothesis of Light in 1675, which states that the existence of ether was to send forces in between particles. Then a man named Robert Hooke criticized my ideas! How dare he! He shall enter a path filled with wrath and fury. I did not appreciate Hooke’s existence throughout my lifetime until he died. Good for him. I don’t have to deal with his nonsense criticism anymore…

Who am I really?

How awkward am I? I got picked on, bullied, looked down upon throughout my childhood. It wasn’t my fault. I blame that man who stole my dearest mother from me. I was traumatized! That monster took away my childhood and I was left with my grandmother, who wasn’t that great of a substitute. I wanted my mother as a child… Some days I would actually dream about killing my stepfather and saving my mother from him. How happy dreams those were… Now more mature and grown up, I’ve grown to realize that I like the quiet, and solitary life more. I would actually have the peace of mind to think. Why do you think I’ve made so many discoveries throughout my lifetime? Death threats, black mail, and its all reactions I do when someone frustrates me. I remember I was so sick that I went into a nervous break down and even spiral in and out depression. When someone sees a successful person such as myself, they assume that they are cocky and full of it. Well I’m telling you now, you are completely wrong. My insecurity can tell you many stories opposing that assumption.
Ahh, I remember that I’ve made a list of sins I’ve committed. As I reread through the list, I find that I create many violent thoughts. Quite funny, some of the sins are worth mentioning to depict my anger towards some people.. “Threatning my father and mother Smith to burne them and the house over them,” “Wishing death and hoping it to some,” and “Denying a crossbow to my mother and grandmother though I knew of it.”
Some think that a child is innocent. I think people will think differently when actually peering into the child’s thoughts.

Regarding that Apple story...

There are stories on how I discovered my Universal Laws of Motion… Rumor has it that an apple fell on my head, thus my brain automatically (more like magically from this story…) came up with the three laws. No. Here is my story.
I was wandering about one day when suddenly an apple fell. What? The fruit falling made me wonder… What force was pulling the apple down from the tree? How did it fall? My mind began to ponder. I had observed a simple apple falling at that certain speed. What if it fell from a higher distance? Hmmm…
Then I began to question even more. The moon is orbiting the earth, but what keeps the moon at that constant distance for the rotation? There must be some kind of a force, or pull. Well I named that force or pull gravity.
I studied and researched about the gravitational pulls of objects and kept Kepler’s laws of planetary motion in mind. With letters exchanged with Hooke, I’ve discovered a proof. The centripetal force that is proportional to the square of the radius vector was the result of the elliptical form of planetary orbits! I studied even further and with some encouragement I published my discoveries into my book, Principia.
The Universal Laws of Motion was born. It included 3 laws. The first is very similar to Galileo’s Inertia. “Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in the state of motion unless an external force is applied to it”
The Second states that “When an object is in a state of uniform motion, all of the forces acting on it are balanced. The change in balance created when you push or throw the stone causes acceleration of the object until the forces acting upon it regain balance and the object returns to a state of uniform motion. “
And lastly, the third law states that “for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Think of a rocket. The fuel ignites, driving gases down out of the rear at tremendous speed and the rocket moves up (accelerates) in direct relationship to the gases being expelled. “
Yes, I was criticized on some of my work regarding this topic. Those idiots don’t know what they are talking about. It is obviously I am much more intellectual than they are! Ohh, how ignorant people can make me so frustrated sometimes…
