Amount of modern science that originated with Kepler's
panpsychist beliefs: 0
Amount of modern science that originated from Kepler when he
was not trying to apply his panpsychist beliefs: more than 0.
This is not an uncommon thing, by the way. Newton's alchemy
went nohwere; his physics and optics founded new fields. The
creationists on talk.origins often refer to various historical
scientists, such as Newton or Kelvin, as creationists, but in
all cases their scientific work was not based on creationism.
