I would say interest can lie anywhere. Agnostic to any given belief seems to me to represent either uncertainty, or acknowledging that certainty cannot exist for the given topic.

So in light of the subject of alchemy it really does not make much sense to me. Id say being agnostic of anything that is not a certain proposition is a valid standpoint.

My only problem is that from my knowledge of what alchemy is, I am certain it false based on the false premise that all things are made from the four "elements" earth air fire water. The periodic table kind of blows that one out of the water . . .
