Is chemistry an inferior body of knowledge ?
« on: May 03, 2017, 02:50:14 PM »
I came across this article. How much do you agree or disagree with it?

Simpler, and more to the point:
Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.

Although Chemistry also contributes a lot to the development of the modern world. But I always feel that physicists are more popular than chemists, biologists and mathematicians. 
Every child knows, Newton, Einstein, Tesla but very few of them knows about chemists.
There is a common notion in my country that Chemistry is more about memorization not about logic.
