Was Newton the devil? Meant to distract humanity from one simple fact that cannot be denied. Something that's outside the realm of creation, our universe, cannot 100% be accurately perceived by us.

Sure, we can try and guess, but ultimately, we have no idea. We have no idea what exactly is "outside" of the universe, or what created the big bang. Just a bunch of guesses.

Newton basically founded physics which founded basically modern science, which led to people disbelieving in God more and more.
Now, a huge part of people disbelieving in God is the whole manifestation of God stuff and arguing why's this and why's that, and all the spiritual stuff.
