::Newton certainly was a Christian--the problem was that he believed in the Arian version, which orthodox Christians considered a heresy. Newton thought the Arians were the true Christians. He would lose his job if he published that idea so he kept it to his notebooks, which were unavailable to scholars until the 20th century. (They had been owned by a private family who stored them in a vault.) [[User:RJJensen|RJJensen]] 22:27, 16 September 2008 (EDT)
