Heisenberg headed the Nazi nuclear effort, but he recommended against
building a bomb because it would take to long to affect the war (this
was early in the war and it was generally assumed Germany would win in a
few more months). He mostly pursued the idea of a power reactor, but he
didn't have a very good idea of how a reactor would work and greatly
overestimated the amount of U235 needed. He was a theoretician and
really a very bad choice to a manage what was essentially an engineering
development. In contrast the U.S. Manhattan project was headed by Gen.
Leslie Groves whose experience and expertise was in building barracks.

Well, even some of the best scientific minds have gone astray
frequently. Heisenberg, for example, headed the Nazi bomb effort, more
with a shrug than a lot of thought. We did have worse examples of
scientists screwing things up; Lysenko, the Eugenicists, Mengele, a
physician and an anthropologist. For bad things in history, we do have
a stake in keeping things Western, for a while, unless one sees Xi's
China as the better model for scientific successes? For me, the
carvings up of the Falun Gong and the Uighers awaits the eventual
release of names of the scientists involved. I could be in for a very
long wait.

[*Brilliant White America*] or is it Yellow Gold or Black Gold or
Purple Pearl America?
“Dumb white trash America has spoken!… None of these ideas have any
meaning to those of us who think in a primarily scientific way.
Comments about Augustine or other ancient theologians are only of
interest in some historical sense. You do not hear this kind of
discussion in a scientific meeting. It is otiose and anachronistic
stuff that frankly all looks a bit like nonsense. ………..In growing up
we put away childish things.”

This is only for general education of “Brilliant (Supremacist?) White
America”. Not everyone who posts here need be white, or of any
particular religion or even American!!
No non-pagan citizen of any country will ever call any human being
“trash”. Every PERSON no matter how heinous is worth more than “the
whole world”. For general education two or three links are given below
to open up, if at all possible, some closed minds. A scientist with a
closed mind is a very dangerous species— nonetheless never any less
worthy than “the whole world”. America has people from all over the
world. That “knowledge” alone is necessary to be cautious with words.

Only two countries are mentioned below, among so many.

Mar 22, 2018 · The credit for establishing Christianity as the
official religion of ancient Armenia is traditionally given to Saint
Gregory the Illuminator or Enlightener (previously known as Grigor
Lusavorich, c. 239 - c. 330 CE). Gregory is credited with converting
king Tiridates the Great (r. c. 298 to c. 330 CE) to the new religion,
formally establishing the Armenian Church, and spreading Christianity
… Armenia (98% Christian) was the first ever Christian Kingdom.

Christians from Egypt, and other Coptic faith minorities in Libya,
Sudan and parts of Ethiopia. The founder of the Coptic faith was a
Libyan, Saint Mark, who introduced Christianity in the city of
Alexandria around the 1st Century A.D

Nasrani Syrian Christians ( Syrian-Malabar -Mappila-Saint Thomas
Christians ) people are an ethnic community in Kerala. Their heritage
is Syriac-Keralite, their culture South Indian, their faith St. Thomas
Christian, and their language Malayalam. According to the Acts of
Thomas apostle, the first converts made by St. Thomas in India were
Malabari Jews, who had settled in Kerala since the time of 'King
Solomon' of Israel. Their tradition goes back to the very beginnings
of first century Christian thought, and the seven churches that are
established by St. Thomas the Apostle among the natives and the Jewish
diaspora in Kerala. They follow a unique Hebrew-Syriac Christian
tradition which includes several Jewish elements along with some Hindu
customs.It is believed that St. Thomas travelled to Kerala in AD. 52.

“Saint Thomas, the disciple of Jesus Christ, landed in a.d. 52 at
Maliankara near Cranganore. It is believed that he visited different
parts of Kerala and converted a good number of local inhabitants,
including seven from the literate upper-caste Nambudiri Brahmans. It
seems that Saint Thomas established churches in seven places in
Kerala. Malayalam came under the influence of Sanskrit and Prakrit
with the spread of Aryan influence. Sanskrit words and sentences are
freely used in Malayalam. Kerala had its own scripts (/lipis/ ) from
early days. The modern Malayalam script is adopted mainly from the
grantha script (book script)….. Malayalam with its fifty-three letters
perhaps expresses by proper marks the most extensive phonology among
all the Indian languages. With more than 74 percent literacy, the
highest in India, Kerala has developed a wealth of Literature
unmatched in any other region. The more than forty newspapers are read
by intellectuals as well working-class farmers and factory laborers.
The best known is Malayala Manorama (first published in 1888) with a
readership of close to a million, the largest in India”.
