Is Alchemy Satanic? How the Inquisition Tried to Destroy the Hermetic Science

In 1396 the Inquisitor General Nicholas Eymerich lashed out against Alchemy.  He argued that alchemy was a fool's errand because the transmutation of metals was impossible given how God had created nature.  Thus, alchemists were at best frauds but at worst something profoundly sinful: heretics who would eventually forge pacts with Satan. In this episode I explore the most forceful attempt by the Inquisition to outlaw alchemy and condemn the alchemists to torture and being burned alive.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

:facepalm2:

Alchemy was to chemistry what phrenology was to psychology, a first (failed) attempt at bringing some measure of scientific understanding to the material world.
