However, after discovering the table by Mendeleeve, an interesting claim surprised the chemistry science scientists and made some laughing: Turning copper to gold!
The Excellency Mirza Hussein Ali Nouri (Died: 1892) claimed that: If copper is kept dry in its mine for 70 years, it will turn into gold.
This claim was surprising because of two reasons: 1) It was in contrast with the science gained after a lot of trouble and changing copper into gold was like a joke and a title for imaginary books. The second wonder was that it was in contrast with his offspring’s statement the Excellency Abdul Baha, the first Imam of Baha’is who says: “Religion must be conformable with wisdom and science otherwise it is groundless fears.” [Sermons 2, page 219]. So, according to the Excellency Abdul Baha, religion must be scientific and intellectual.
The Excellency Imam Ali (P.H.): “A problem which is agreeable with science must be conformable with religion. What is figured out by wisdom, religion must accept it. Each religion which is disagree with the science is false.”
