Honestly fuck the schools. The parents brought that shit on themselves and most schools in Europe and especially in that region work fine.

Time to remind you of some big scientific blunders :
· Alchemy: - Sir Isaac Newton - the scientist who single-handedly created the foundations of modern day physics had a little known obsession with alchemy, and was convinced for much of his life that he would be able to change base metals into gold. Such a discovery would have helped with his later job as master of the mint, but never materialised.
· Flat Earth: - even though Christopher Columbus gave flat earth theorists a reason to think twice, there are still flat earth societies where people propose (and prove) elaborate explanations for why the world actually is shaped like a pancake.

Actually to anyone with any since of history, they all knew Newton was very involved with Alchemy (to call him the father of it is stretching shit). Yes he was seeking out the philosopher's stone. He was not the only person to try this theory and people today still are interested in creating the philosophers stone.
Anyways speaking of creating metals (we do make diamonds btw), show me some aluminum found in nature.
Christopher Columbus, the king and queen of Spain, even the average sailor did not think the earth was flat. Hell the Portuguese went around Africa to get to India and He wanted to reach china by sailing west. The sailors just had a general fear of being more than 10 or so days away from land, due to fears of getting lost. Copernicus had long ago proved a wrong earth, the maps they used were a round earth. That whole story is just a bunch of BS the US school system liked to feed the kids.
